I suggest explicitly writing out 250000000 instead of 250e06 since some students won't be familiar with the latter notation.

Also, to be explicit I'd define possible_entries as

pop_size <- 250000000
possible entries <- c(rep("support", pop_size * 0.887), rep("not", pop_size * 0.113))

We're looking for sampled_entries == "support" not "justified", right?

Thanks, all three items are now fixed.
