1. **State the problem:** We want to estimate how many students out of 700 on campus would prefer Movie D based on a random sample.
2. **Given data:**
- Movie A: 32 students
- Movie B: 20 students
- Movie C: 28 students
- Movie D: 45 students
- Total sample size: $32 + 20 + 28 + 45 = 125$ students
- Total campus population: 700 students
3. **Formula used:**
We use the proportion from the sample to estimate the number in the population:
$$\text{Expected number for Movie D} = \frac{\text{Number preferring Movie D in sample}}{\text{Total sample size}} \times \text{Total population}$$
4. **Calculate the proportion:**
$$\frac{45}{125} = 0.36$$
5. **Calculate the expected number:**
$$0.36 \times 700 = 252$$
6. **Final answer:**
We expect approximately **252** students on campus to prefer Movie D.
