Answer:

55% of the students at the basketball game are boys

Explanation:

There are 400 students at a basketball game.

180 of the students are girls

220 of the students are boys

Since 200 is 50% of 400

We know that more than (<) 50% is the boys at the basketball

(Honestly I just multiplied first)

400 * 52% = 208 Boys

400 * 54% = 216 Boys

400 * 55% = 220 Boys

Hope this helps
