Answer:

212

Step-by-step explanation:

85 here is 100%

And 900 is also 100%

That's for the different comparisons. So now, what we do is, we should divide 85 by 900, and then, whatever is our answer, multiply that by 20.

That is surely going to equal how many students are going to say that Math is Awesome for 900 student survey.

Step 1

85/900=10.5882352941

Let's round that to make it

10.5

Step 2

10.5x20=210

That means, if we go exactly, like multiplying all of those numbers, then our answer should be 212 or 200.

Just to be sure that our answer is correct, we will do it with 10.58 now.

Step 3

10.58x20=211.6

So now it looks like it's most probably going to be 212

But still, let's do 10.588 now.

Step 4

10.588x20=211.76

Okay, let's do it again, with 10.5882

Step 5

10.5882x20=211.764

Okay, so I just multiplied the whole number this time, and I still got a decimal, so that means that your answer is 212 basically.
