Answer:

The answer is 300 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of students surveyed are =  86+12+2=100.

The number of students who like chocolate ice cream are = 48+12=60.  

If 500 students are surveyed, then the number of students who would like chocolate ice cream will be = Let it be x

The relation becomes:

[tex]\frac{60}{100}=\frac{x}{500}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{60*500}{100}[/tex]

x = 300

Hence, the correct answer is 300 students.
