<h3>What is percentage ?</h3>

Percentage is the value per hundredth.

According to the given question a survey was carried out among 120 school children looked at which type of meat they preferred. 55% said they preferred lamb,20% said they preferred chicken, 15% preferred duck and 10% turkey and we have to calculate no. of children in each category.

55% said they preferred lamb, So the no. of students i this category is

= (55/100)×120

= 66 children.

20% said they preferred chicken, So the no. of children in this category is

= (20/100)×120

= 24 children.

15% said they preferred duck, So the no. of children in this category is

= (15/100)×120

= 18 children.

10% said they preferred turkey, So the no. of children in this category is

= (10/100)×120

= 12 children.
