    C. 73

    Step-by-step explanation:

    set up a proportion for this one, so youre trying to find only the amount of yes' so only use 11 since they are the yes'. 30 is the total so your fraction / proportion is 11/30. now we set up another proportion but with 200. x represents the unknown amount of people who say yes. the fraction for this will be x/200. cross multiply:

    11 x 200 = 2200

    2200 / 30 = 73.33333333

    closest answer to this is 73 (c)
