The answer is: a. Between 170 and 220 (inclusive) of the drivers in the sample regularly wear a seatbelt?.

Explanation:

If we have 500 drivers, of which 40% = 0.40, wear the belt, multiplying 500 x 0.40 = 200 drivers who wear the belt.

The answer is: a. Between 170 and 220 (inclusive) of the drivers in the sample regularly wear a seatbelt?.
