Question

Emily surveyed 364 people with 3 out of 7 respondents answering yes. How many people said yes?

Answer 1

156

Answer 2

Now among 364 people, out of every 7 respondents 3 answered "yes".

So, let us imagine that every 7 respondents imply 1 group. Can you tell me how many groups will be there among 364 people then?

Answer 3

52 ?

Answer 4

(3/7) is the fraction (who answered "yes") of the total number of people surveyed.

Knowing this, and knowing that a total of 364 people were surveyed, how many people said yes? the fraction 4/7 said no.

Please show your work. How'd y ou get 156?

Answer 5

So, basically we are given with out of every 1 group, 3 respondents say "yes"

So, how many will say "yes" out of 52 groups?

Answer 6

Please do not post only answers. Show how you got your results.

Answer 7

So I multiply 3 by 52?

Answer 8

Why by 52?

Answer 9

Because you divide 364 by 7?

Answer 10

Sorry i went afk for a sec

Answer 11

math male am i right

Answer 12

@lolacole12 : You need to explain how you arrived at your suggestions. No, you have not yet been right. If you're not sure, and if you can't show your work, better that you remain in the background and learn from the discussion.

Answer 13

Its hard to explain

Answer 14

well i wrote it

Answer 15

If you find it hard to explain, then please remain in the background.

Answer 16

Umm ok

Answer 17

ViaLey: Why only divide by 7? What happened to that 3?

Answer 18

Well I thought I was suppose to divide by 7 because in each group of people there are seven people.

Answer 19

I see you're on the right track, but would prefer you show all your results in one place. You've suggested multiplying 52 by 3. Why?

Please show ALL steps in one entry.

Answer 20

the problem says nothing about dividing the group into smaller groups of 7 people.

The important thing here is that 3/7 (a fraction) of the whiole group respond "yes.

Answer 21

So, multiply the number of peoople in the group by (3/7).

Answer 22

This is the whole problem if that helps:

J & B Research is conducting a survey to see if people still live in the state in which they were born. They hired Kimberly, Emily, and Ava to conduct the survey.

Kimberly surveyed 400 people with 38% of respondents answering yes.

Emily surveyed 364 people with 3 out of 7 respondents answering yes.

Ava surveyed 350 people with 0.44 of respondents answering yes.

Place the survey takers in order from least number of respondents answering yes to greatest number of respondents answering yes.

Answer 23

I see. Please finish the part of the whole question, the part we were discussing.

Then you'll need to tackle the part starting with "Ava surveyed..."

Answer 24

I know that out of the 400 people that Kimberly surveyed, 152 said yes.

2. "Emily surveyed 364 people with 3 out of 7 respondents answering yes."

I don't understand when you said to "multiply the number of peoople in the group by (3/7)."..

Answer 25

Perform this operation:\[\frac{ 3 }{ 7 }*364\]

Answer 26

Oh, okay :)

It's 1092/7, which is equal to 156.

Answer 27

Yes. What does this 156 represent?

Answer 28

156 represents the number of people who answered "yes" in Emily's survey.

Answer 29

RIGHT!!

Answer 30

Yey :) Thank you so much lol

Answer 31

tHE OTHER parts of this question are similar. You need to take the fraction or percentage and compute how many peoople voted yes.

You're welcome.
