Answer:
1650 families
Step-by-step explanation:
In a survey of his neighborhood, Timothy found out that 3 families out of 7 have a dog for a pet.
The given ratio = 3:7
When written as a fraction = 3/7
The number of families that would have a pet dog in a town with about 3,850 families is given as:
3/7 × 3,850
= 1650 families
Therefore, 1650 families would have a pet dog in town.
