Question

There are 16 dogs at the dog park last Saturday, and 6 of them were poodles. Considering this data, how many of the next 10 dogs to arrive at the park next Saturday should you expect to be poodles?

Answer 1

3 poodles.

Explanation:

6/16 dogs were poodles, so 3/8 of the total number.

If now we consider 10 dogs, we have to calculate 3/8 of them-

Which is 3,75 and it makes no sense because it has decimals, so the actual number of poodles is 3
