Considering this data, how many of the next 16 people to sign up should you expect to be brown-eyed?
brown-eyed people

Based on the data provided, the proportion of brown-eyed people who have already signed up is 10 out of 20 total people, which is 0.5 or 50%.

Therefore, we would expect approximately 50% of the next 16 people to be brown-eyed.

50% of 16 is 8, so we would expect around 8 of the next 16 people to be brown-eyed.
