Since the 40% of the students choose lion, we can use the following expression:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Total of students}\cdot\frac{\text{percent}}{100}=\text{equivalent number to the percent} \\ \text{Total students}\cdot\frac{40}{100}=412 \\ \text{Isolating the variable total students:} \\ \text{Total students=}\frac{412\cdot100}{40}=\frac{41200}{40} \\ \text{Total students=1030} \end{gathered}[/tex]
Jarrett survey 1030 students
