Question

Amelia runs a day care center. So far this year, the enrollment has consisted of 3 babies and 6 children of other ages. Considering this data, how many of the next 12 children to enroll should you expect to be babies? PLS HURRY

Answer 1

Hope this saved you ^^

Explanation:

To determine the number of babies we can expect among the next 12 children to enroll, we need to calculate the proportion of babies based on the current enrollment data.

Out of the total enrollment so far, there are 3 babies and 6 children of other ages, making a total of 9 children.

Proportion of babies = (Number of babies / Total number of children) = 3 / 9 = 1/3

Now, to estimate the number of babies among the next 12 children, we multiply the proportion of babies by the total number of children to be enrolled:

Number of babies expected = Proportion of babies * Total number of children to enroll

Number of babies expected = (1/3) * 12 = 4

Therefore, based on the current enrollment data, we can expect approximately 4 out of the next 12 children to be babies.
