There are 700 students at Washington High School. You survey 75 randomly selected students and find that 60 plan to go to college after graduation. How many students are likely to go to college after graduation?

Answer (2)

so if you survey 75/700 or so 60/75 or 80% of that group are going to college
so you multiply 80% of 700 and get 560 students going to college

Based on a survey where 80% of the sampled students indicated they plan to go to college, it can be estimated that around 560 students at Washington High School will choose to attend college after graduation. This was calculated by applying the proportion to the total student population of 700. Therefore, the finding from the survey provides a strong indication of future college attendance among the students.
