Miguel conducts a survey of 750 college students to see how many of them have a part-time job. His results show that 500 of the 750 students have a part-time job. Kureshi also does a survey of college students to see how many of them have a part-time job. His results are NOT proportional to Miguel's. Which could represent Kureshi's Data?

A200 out of 300 students surveyed have a part time job
B700 out of 1100 students surveyed have a part time job
C800 out of 1200 students surveyed have a part time job
D9000 out of 1300 students surveyed have a part time job

Miguel: 500 out of 750 students have part time jobs.

500 ÷ 250 = 2
750 ÷ 250 = 3

500:750 = 2:3


A) 200 out of 300 ⇒ 200/100 and 300/100 ⇒ 2:3
B) 700 out of 1100 ⇒ 700/100 and 1100/100 ⇒ 7:11
C) 800 out of 1200 ⇒ 800/400 and 1200/400 ⇒ 2:3
D) 9000 out of 1300 ⇒ 9000/100 and 1300/100 ⇒ 90:13

Among the choices, Choice B could represent Kureshi's Data because it is not proportional to the data of Miguel.

Choice D is not possible. You cannot have a result that is way beyond the scope of your population. It is impossible to get 9000 students out of only 1300 students.

b
