A class survey showed 8 out of 25 students had plans to travel over spring break. How many students out of the 400 students in the entire school would you expect to be traveling over spring break?

The **students **in the entire **school **you expect to be **traveling **over **spring break **would be 128 students .
What is a proportion?
A **proportion **is a **fraction **of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
The **relations **between variables , either direct or inverse proportional , can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.
We are given that class **survey **showed 8 out of 25 students had plans to travel over spring break .
Thus, there are 400 **students **in the entire **school **
Use **ratio **and proportion :
8/25 = x /400
Cross multiplication ;
x = 8/25 (400)
x = 8(16)
x = 128
Therefore, the **students **in the entire **school **you expect to be **traveling **over **spring break **would be 128 students .

Use ratio and proportion: 25 8 ​ = 400 x ​
3200 = 25 x
25 3200 ​ = 25 25 x ​
128 = x

Using the proportion from the class survey, we calculated that approximately 128 students out of a total of 400 in the school would be expected to travel over spring break. This was done by setting up a ratio and cross-multiplying to find the expected number. Therefore, the answer is 128 students.
