Answer:

80%

Explanation:

To find the percentage sold to sixth graders, take the number sold to sixth graders over the total

percentage to sixth graders = tickets sold to sixth graders/ total tickets

The total tickets are 300

Tickets to sixth graders is 240

Substitute it in

percentage to sixth graders = 240/300

=24/30

=4/5

=.8

Multiply this by 100 to give the percent

80%
