Question

There are 80 students in a 8th grade, 20% are boys. How many boys are in 8th grade?

Answer 1

Answer:

16 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets go with easy example:

20% of 100 students means 20 students: what is done there

• We converted 20% to 20/100 so

$\frac{20}{100}*100=20$

Lets do the same with 80 students as well

$\frac{20}{100}*80=16$
