Given:
60 = the total number of members in the sports club
40 = number of boys of the club
Find: Percent of the club that are girls.
Solution:
There are 60 total members, 40 boys, so the number of girls is obviously 20, because 60 - 40 = 20
This time we must find the percent of the club that are girls.
This also means - what percent of 60 is 20.
Percentage ÷ Base = Rate
20 ÷ 60 = 0.33333...
Now, change 0.33333... to percent by multiplying by 100 and inserting the percent symbol
0.33333... x 100 = 33. 333333......% or just 33.33%
Final Answer:
33.33%
