Answer: 49 students
Explanation:
2 /7 of students in a school wore shorts today. The number of students to be selected in order to get 14 students who will wear shorts to school will be:
Let the number of students that will be sampled be y. This will be:
2/7 of y = 14
2/7 × y = 14
2y/7 = 14
Cross Multiply
2y = 7 × 14
2y = 98
y = 98/2
y = 49
49 students will be selected randomly.
