Suppose 34% of a large sample of a population favor a tax increase. If there are 95,000 people in the population, about how many people in the population favor a tax increase?

Answer 1

32,300 people in the population favor a tax increase. I got that by multiplying .34 by 95,000

This would be 32,300 people
