Question

There are 32 students in Miss Smith’s class. Eighteen are girls. What percent of the class are girls?

Answer 1

percent that are girls = [(# of girls)/(# of students)]*100

Answer 2

for example, say you had 12 girls out of 30 students


percent that are girls = [(# of girls)/(# of students)]*100
percent that are girls = [(12)/(30)]*100
percent that are girls = 0.4*100
percent that are girls = 40%


this is not the answer as it's just an example
