Cara saw an advertisement claiming 5 out of 6 students prefer talking on the phone over texting. she predicts that 500 out of 600 students prefer talking on the phone. explain why her prediction could be false.

5/6 is not the definite ratio, when you take a larger sample size it could be off by a bit like 499/600 or 501/600

1. isolate the variable, in this case, d. subtract 35.5 on both sides of the equation.2. 52 subtracted by 35.5 is 16.53. therefore your answer would be d= 16.5this is the basics of pre algebra, isolating variable through adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing, if you have any other questions to ask just comment!
