The table shows the enrollment in a university class so far, broken down by student type.
adult education - 7
graduate - 2
undergraduate - 9
Considering this data, how many of the next 12 students to enroll should you expect to undergraduate studens?
Based on the current enrollment data, the percentage of undergraduate students is 9 out of a total of 18 students (adult education + graduate + undergraduate).
To find out the percentage of undergraduate students in the class so far, we calculate:
Percentage of undergraduate students = (Number of undergraduate students / Total number of students) x 100
Percentage of undergraduate students = (9 / 18) x 100 = 50%
Therefore, we can expect 50% of the next 12 students to be undergraduate students.
Number of undergraduate students among the next 12 = 0.5 x 12 = 6
Therefore, we can expect 6 of the next 12 students to be undergraduate students.
