To estimate the number of pictures that show the beach, we can use the rate per 100. In this case, the rate is 63%.
To calculate the estimated number of pictures that show the beach, we can use the following formula:
Estimated number of beach pictures = (Rate / 100) * Total number of pictures
Let's plug in the values:
Estimated number of beach pictures = (63 / 100) * 592
To simplify the calculation, we can divide 63 by 100:
Estimated number of beach pictures = 0.63 * 592
Multiplying 0.63 by 592:
Estimated number of beach pictures ≈ 372.96
Rounding the estimated number of beach pictures to the nearest whole number:
Estimated number of beach pictures ≈ 373
Therefore, based on the rate per 100, it is estimated that approximately 373 pictures show the beach.
