Banneker Middle School has 750 students. Lynn surveys a random sample of 50 students and finds that 27 of them have pet dogs. How many students at the school are likely to have pet dogs.

405 students

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, Banneker Middle School has 750 students and we are told that Lynn surveys a random sample of 50 students and finds that 27 have pet dogs. The number of students at the school that are likely to have pet dogs goes thus:

Since out of 50 students surveyed, 27 have pet dogs, this means we multiply the fraction by 750. This can be mathematically written as:

= 27/50 × 750

= 27 × 15

= 405

This means 405 students are expecting to have pet dogs.
