5. At Ripona Middle School, there are 645 students,
in the student body. There is 258 girls. What
Percent of the students are boys?

Respuesta :

Answer:

60% of students are boys

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay first subtract 645-258 to get the amount of boys at the school

645-258=387

Now the ratio of boys to girls is

387:258

387/645×100 to get percentage of boys

put that in your calculator and you will get 60%

so there is 60% of middle school boys and

258/645×100 to get the percentage of girls

put it in the calculator and you will get 40%

so 60% boys and 40% girls

60% + 40% = 100%
