Based on the information provided:
- 8 out of 18 dogs survived the rattlesnake bite without receiving the vaccine
- This is a survival rate of 8/18 = 44.44%
If there were 720 dogs in the study that did not receive the vaccine and were then bitten by a rattlesnake, we can calculate how many of them survived by multiplying the survival rate by the total number of dogs:
44.44% * 720 = 0.4444 * 720 = 319.968
Approximately 320 of the 720 dogs that did not receive the vaccine survived the rattlesnake bite.
