Question

Suppose 25 out of 175 people said they like to play disc golf and 5 out of every 12 of the players have a personalized flying disc. At the same rates, in a group of 252 people , predict how many you would expect to have a personalized flying disc.

Answer 1

25 out of 175 is 1/7, and the next fraction is 5/12. We will be applying these two fractions to the next group in order to obtain the answer.
1/7 of 252 is 252÷7= 36
36×5/12= 15
So, we can expect 15 people to have a personalised flying disc.
