To find this answer, we can calculate the proportion of people who prefer jogging in the sample population and apply it to the larger population.
8 out of 32 people prefer jogging in the sample population.
8/32 = 0.25
To find out how many people out of a population of 96 prefer jogging, we can multiply 0.25 by 96:
0.25 * 96 = 24
Therefore, it can be estimated that about 24 people out of a population of 96 prefer jogging.
