In any group of 100 nurses, you would expect 45 nurses to specialize in a particular field. In a class of 240 graduates, how many would you expect to specialize?

Rationale: In a group of 100 nurses, 45 specialize. So, the proportion of nurses specializing is 45/100 = 0.45. To find how many graduates specialize, we apply this proportion to the class size: 0.45 x 240 = 108. Thus, you would expect 108 graduates to specialize. Other choices are incorrect because they do not follow this logical calculation based on the given proportion.
