Answer 1

Answer:

Percentage of the senior team's players = 70%  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A high school football team has 60 players. 42 of the players are seniors.

We have to find the percentage of the team's players are seniors.

Since, 42 of the players are seniors out of  60 players.

Number of senior players = 42

total number of players = 60

$\text{percentage of the senior team's players}=\frac{\text{Number of senior players}}{\text{total number of players}}\times 100$

Substitute, we have,

$\text{percentage of the senior team's players}=\frac{42}{60}}\times 100$

On simplify we have,

Percentage of the senior team's players = 70%

Answer 2

The answer is 70% of the team are seniors
