Out of the 240 students polled, 33 stated they were planning on joining the work force immediately after graduation. If there are a total of 840 students in the high school, what is a reasonable approximation of the number of high school students who plan to enter the work force after graduation?

Total number of students joining workforce after graduation ≈ 116

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of students polled = 240

Number of students joining workforce = 33

Percentage of students joining workforce (polled):

Total Number of students in high school = 840

Percentange of students joining workforce will eventually remain the same

that is 13.75%

Find 13.75% of 840 to find the total number of students from high school which will be joining workforce after graduation:

Total number of students joining workforce after graduation ≈ 116

false

step-by-step explanation:

the reason i say this is because for a certain length of sides you can pick any two and the length is wither equal or greater than the third side and in this case it's not.

3 + 5 = 8

8 is smaller than 9 which is the third side.

hope this : )
