Answer:

47%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 15 total students, so find the percentage of girls out of the total students: 7/15= .466, which is about 47%. To double check, you can do the boys and make sure it adds to 100%. 8/15= .533, which is about 53%. 47+53=100. So girls are 47% and boys are 53%

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

<u>There are 18 girls in a group that has 16 boys.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us for solving the question:

Number of girls in the grade = 81

Number of the boys in the grade = 72

Number of students in the grade = 81 + 72 = 153

2. Let's find the number of girls in a group that has 16 boys.

For getting that number we will use the Rule of three simple, this way:

Number of girls in a group that has 16 boys = (81 * 16)/72

Number of girls in a group that has 16 boys = 1,296 / 72

<u>Number of girls in a group that has 16 boys = 18</u>

<u>There are 18 girls in a group that has 16 boys.</u>
