7 out of 10 doctors If there are 4200 doctors that prefer Cough-Up brand syrup, how many total doctors are there? * A)6000 B)2940 C)14000 D)1260​

Respuesta :

answer: a) 6000

reason:

if 7 out of 10 doctors prefer cough up syrup, then that means 4200 is 7/10ths of the doctors
divide 4200 by 7 to get 600
then, multiply 600 by 10 to get 6000, the total number of doctors
