Question

If there are 350 boys in a school with a total of 800 students, then what percent of the students are girls?

Answer 1

Answer:

56.25% are girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Given there are 350 boys out of a total of 800, then

number of girls = 800 - 350 = 450 , thus percentage of girls is

$\frac{450}{800}$ × 100%

= $\frac{450(100)}{800}$ = 56.25%

Answer 2

Answer:

56.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

800 - 350 = 450

1% of 800 = 8 (800 divided by 100)

450 divided by 8 = 56.25
