Michelle took a survey of the students in her grade to see how many are likely to join a book club if she starts one. She surveyed 48 students and 10 said they would join. If there are 240 students in her grade, about how many students could Michelle expect to join the book club?​

Answer: 50

Step-by-step explanation: First of all, you need to establish your rate of acceptance. This would be 10 out of 48 or 10/48. Next, you need to simplify this to 5/24. Okay now this is epic. Now you need to convert 5/24 to x/240. Simple. Just multiply both sides by ten in 5/24 and you get your answer of 50. Very cool.
