    Since there are 1500 people in your random sample, and the statistics show that 19.9% of people in that bracket smoke, convert your decimal to a percent (divide by 100, so you would get 0.199) and multiply that by the number in your sample, 1500. This gives you 298.5. You cannot have a fraction of a person, so round up to 299 people.
