Based on the data provided, the ratio of chihuahuas to total dogs at the park last Saturday was 3 chihuahuas out of 12 total dogs (3 chihuahuas + 9 other dogs). Therefore, the probability of a dog being a chihuahua is 3/12, which simplifies to 1/4.
If we apply this probability to the next 20 dogs arriving at the park, we can expect approximately 1/4 of them to be chihuahuas. Therefore, we can expect around 5 of the next 20 dogs to be chihuahuas.
There were 3 chihuahuas at the dog park last Saturday, along with 9 other dogs. Considering this data, how many of the next 20 dogs to arrive at the park next Saturday should you expect to be chihuahuas?
