Josiah tracked the number of songs…

Josiah tracked the number of songs from each genre played in an hour on his MP3 player. The counts are displayed in the table below. He has a total of 1,500 songs on his player and predicted the number of rock songs to be 300. Which statements about his solution are true? Check all that apply. Josiah’s Music Sample 1: R & B – 5, Pop – 4, Classical – 3, Jazz – 2, Rock – 6; Sample 2: R & B – 4, Pop – 3, Classical – 5, Jazz – 4, Rock – 4. Josiah’s work: 10/20 = x/1,500. 10×30/20×30=x/1,500. 300=x. He should have found the average number of rock songs by averaging 4 and 6 to get 5. He did not multiply the numerator and denominator by the correct number to equal 1,500. His answer will be one-half of what he got because he did not divide 10 by 2 when setting up the proportion. He can only solve the proportion by multiplying the numerator and denominator by a common multiple. He should have multiplied the numerator and denominator by 75, not 30, because 20×75=1,500.
