in a school survey, 5.5% of students chose "teacher" as a career goal, while 6.4% chose "chef." from this information, predict how many of a school of 200 students would choose "chef"

You just multiply 200 x 0.064 = 12.8 students, say 13 students

No. choosing chef
(6.4 / 100) x 200
= 6.4 x 2
= 12.8 pupils
Take this to 12 or 13 pupils as required.
No. choosing teacher
(5.5 / 100) x 200
= 5.5 x 2

It would be 6.4 people per hundred *that is how you get a percent* So multiply that by 2. It would be 12.8 students although you may have to round as you cannot have .8 a student.

It would be 6.4% of 200. The extra information, 5.5%, does not enter in.
