Answer 2

48.3%.

Explanation:

To determine the percentage of children in the summer camp who chose fishing as their favorite activity, knowing that there were 29 of 60 children in total who chose that option, the following calculation must be performed:

60 = 100

29 = X

(29 x 100) / 60 = X

2,900 / 60 = X

48.3 = X

Therefore, 48.3% of the children chose fishing as their favorite activity in summer camp.
