200 students at a local college campus were asked to choose between chocolate and vanilla ice cream. 50 of the 200 students chose chocolate. if the college has a total of 1000 students, approximately how many students would prefer chocolate ice cream?

50/200 ; multiply that by 5 and you get 250/1000. therefore, 250 students would prefer chocolate.

The first ratio of chocolate to total students preference is 50/200. If there are approximately 1000 students, then we can find the new ?/1000 ratio by multiplying the denominator or total to get 1000

200×5=1000, so we would have to multiply thr numerator as well because you have to multiply noth the top and bottom to have an equal ratio . 50×5= 250.

The new ratio for chocolate preference to the total is 250/1000, which just means that 250 of the total 1000 students prefer chocolate ice cream

The pie is multyplued by the second step

+1,000)=g7e=mc2-g=7 because if you know algebra you should know g=7 to get your answer
