there are four presidential candidates in a country a street survey was conducted asking 2500 registered voters which candidate they will vote for in the calming election the table summarizes the results of the survey candidate one 250 numbers of supporters candidate to 1250 numbers of supporters candidate three 450 numbers of supporters candidate for 550 numbers of supporters 1000 more voters are surveyed how many of them will likely prefer candidate three or four explain the answer
Out of the initial 2500 surveyed voters, candidate three has 450 supporters and candidate four has 550 supporters, making a total of 1000 supporters between them.
If we are to survey an additional 1000 voters, we can expect the proportion of supporters for each candidate to remain roughly the same. Therefore, out of the additional 1000 voters surveyed, we can estimate that 400 will likely prefer candidate three (450 supporters out of 2500 total supporters in the initial survey multiplied by 1000 additional voters) and 600 will likely prefer candidate four (550 supporters out of 2500 total supporters in the initial survey multiplied by 1000 additional voters).
Therefore, it is estimated that out of the additional 1000 voters surveyed, 400 will likely prefer candidate three and 600 will likely prefer candidate four.
