John surveyed a random sample of 10 students in 7th grade seven of them they would vote for tammy as class president if there are 230 students in 7th grade what is the best estimate of the students who would vote for tammy

7 out of 10 would vote for Tammy so what value (x) would vote for her out of 230. Set up a proportion comparing the two.

x= # of people who vote Tammy

7 out of 10= x out of 230
7/10= x/230
cross multiply

(7*230)= (10*x)
1610= 10x
divide both sides by 10

161= x

ANSWER: 161 people in 7th grade would vote for Tammy.

Hope this helps! :)
