Answer:

192

Step-by-step explanation:

The data we are given is that:

[tex]\dfrac{4}{25}[/tex]

of the teenagers in a survey prefered orange juice over apple juice.

We are asked to assume that this data applies to a high school population, and if so, find the number of high schoolers that prefer orange juice in a high school with 1,200 teens. We can achieve this by simply multiplying the ratio by the total population:

[tex]\dfrac{4}{25} \times 1,\!200 = 192[/tex]

So, we would expect 192 high schoolers to prefer orange juice.
