A survey was conducted of 880 college students attending the same university. They were offered a list of 10 different internet service providers and were asked to select the one they prefer. Can a service provider receiving only 89 votes come out on top?

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a survey was conducted of 880 college students attending the same university and that they were offered a list of 10 different internet service providers and were asked to select the one they prefer.
