In a sample, 76 people or 38% of the people in the sample said that the mayor should be prosecuted for misconduct. How many people were in the sample

200

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

In a sample 76 people or 38% voted  the mayor to be prosecuted.

solution:

how many people were in that sample

if 38% = 76 people

therefore;

let

p = total number of people

76/p = 38/100

cross multiply both sides

38p = 7600

divide both sides by 38

38p /38 = 7600 /38

p = 200

the number of people in the sample original was 200.
