Answer :

Out of 200 students surveyed, 38 said that soccer was their favorite sport.

The total number of students surveyed represents 100% of the sample, to determine which percentage does 38 represent, you can use cross multiplication:

200 students____100%

38 students _____ x%

Both relationships are at the same ratio so that:

[tex]\frac{100}{200}=\frac{x}{38}[/tex]

To determine the percentage multiply both sides by 38:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 38\cdot\frac{100}{200}=38\cdot\frac{x}{38} \\ 19=x \end{gathered}[/tex]

The percentage of students surveyed that like soccer is 19%
