Respuesta :

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.
