5 SBA Performance Task

This problem is like a performance task on the state test. Read carefully, plan your approach, solve step by step, and explain your reasoning.

Scenario: You surveyed 40 students about their favorite lunch. Pizza: 15 students, Tacos: 10 students, Burgers: 8 students, Salad: 7 students.

Part A: What fraction of students chose pizza? Simplify your answer.

Part B: If 200 students attend the school, predict how many would choose tacos based on your survey.

Part C: Explain your reasoning.
