Mathematics
1 answer:
DIA [1.3K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

49% of the pupils are boys and 51% are girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, so first, you've got to find the total number of students: 567.

Now, to find the value of 1%, you divide 567 by 100, which will give you 5.67.

Next, you divide the number of male students by the value of 1%. That's 278 ÷ 5.67 = 49.0299823633157.

Subtracting that from 100% gives you 50.9700176366843 (percentage of girls)

Now, you can't write all that down, so you'll round it! 49.0299823633157 will round down, because 0 is less than 5, so it's 49%. 50.9700176366843 rounds up, because 9 is greater than 5, so that's 51%.

Therefore, 49% of the pupils are boys and 51% are girls.

I hope this helps!
