Math Problem Statement

If 1,500 students were surveyed about their favorite way to spend free time, how many chose streaming music

Solution

To determine how many students chose streaming music, you need to know the percentage or proportion of students who preferred this activity from the survey data. If you have a percentage or fraction for students who chose streaming music, you can calculate it as:

Number of students who chose streaming music=Total students surveyed×Percentage/Proportion for streaming music\text{Number of students who chose streaming music} = \text{Total students surveyed} \times \text{Percentage/Proportion for streaming music}

If the percentage of students who chose streaming music is available, substitute that value and calculate the result. For example:

  1. If 30% of students preferred streaming music: Number of students=1500×30100=450\text{Number of students} = 1500 \times \frac{30}{100} = 450

  2. If no specific percentage is given, you would need additional data to compute the result.

Do you have a percentage or proportion for streaming music from the survey results? Let me know so I can refine the calculation!
