Sagot :

8 of 19 players said that they had 2 or more siblings.

8 out of 19 is equal to what out of 570

8/19 = x/570

This proportion can be written in different ways.

8/19 = x/570 cross multiplies to 19*x = 8*570

The task is to find a proportion among the answer options that cross multiplies to the same equation.

Option C is x/570 = 8/19. That cross multiplies to 19*x = 8*570 and is the correct answer.

Answer:

x/570 = 8/19
