Answer:

Percentage:

300%

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Imagine that the class only had 4 students (unrealistic most likely, but small numbers help much better I think)

If we had 4 students and 3 were boys, then 4-3 = 1 girl is in the class. This makes the ratio of boys to girls be 3 to 1. In other words, there are 3 times as many boys compared to girls.

Divide the number of girls (1) over the number of students total (4) to get 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%

Answer: 25%
