Question

In a school containing 360 children, 198 are girls. What percent of all the children are girls? What percent of the children are boys? The number of girls is what percent of the number of boys? The number of boys is what percent of the number of girls?

Answer 1

Explanation:

198 girls/ 360 children

198/360 = 0.55, or 55% are girls

100 - 55 = 45

45% are boys

360 - 198 = 162

There are 162 boys

There are 198 girls, and 162 boys

198/162 = 1.22, or 122%, or 22% more girls than boys

162/198 = 0.81, or 81%, or 81% less boys than girls
