a middle school cafeteria found out that 10 out of every 35 students pick low-fat milk to drink for lunch. Based on this information, if 1,190 students go through the cafeteria line each day, how many students will pick low-fat milk?

Your answer choices:

340
440
500

Answer :

Answer:

340

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number students who choose low-fat milk

set up a proportion:  [tex]\frac{10}{35}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{1190}[/tex]

cross-multiply:  35x = 11900

                         divide each side by 35
