Based upon the testing results above, of the 11.69 million people who live in Ohio, what is the bestestimate for the number of people who would test positive for the virus?

Respuesta :

To find the probability for the number who tested positive we divide the positive cases between the total of the covid tests and then mutiply by 100.

P = (8,533/68,811)* 100

P = 12.400, the nearest hundredth of a percent is 12.

11690000 people who live in ohio and the testing results is that 12% of this people would test positive for the virus. so we need to find percentage 12 for 11690000.

(11690000* 12) / 100

1402800 is the number of people who would test positive for the virus
