Give your answer to 1 decimal place

Answer 1

55.9%

Explanation:

To find the percentage of girls in the class, we can use the following formula:

Percentage = (Number of girls / Total number of students) * 100

Number of girls = 19

Total number of students = 34

Percentage = (19 / 34) * 100

= 55.88235 % ≈ 55.9 % ( rounded off to one decimal place)
