In in a random survey, 8 out of every 13 students were taking Pre-Algebra, how many students out of the larger population of 8,000 students would be taking Pre-Algebra?

Respuesta :

4923 I believe. It would be 8/13 to find the ratio and then you would multiply that by 8000

Answer: 4,923 students

Step-by-step explanation: If 8 of 13 students are taking Pre-Algebra, set up a proportion to solve for the number out of 8,000. $ 8/13 = x/8000$
