Answer 1

Answer:

8,250

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

we know that

For a total of 500 students, 33% chose a cell phone as their favorite electronic device

so

The number of students that chose a cell phone as their favorite electronic device is equal to

$500(33/100)=165\ students$

step 2

If 25,000  students were surveyed, how many would you expect to chose a cell phone as their favorite electronic device?

using proportion

$\frac{500}{165}=\frac{25,000}{x}\\\\x=165(25,000)/500\\\\x= 8,250$
