At a soccer game, 70% of the fans were rooting for the Tornadoes. If 40% of the Tornadoes fans were girls, what percent of the fans at the game rooting for the Tornadoes were boys?

The answer is A.30%

The way I did this problem was from a number line. I don't have a one: so I'll just make one.

10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% 100%

So, what you do here is you take out 30% because those are NOT tornadoes fans. 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% .

It says that 40% are girls so... 10% 20% 30%.

Hope you get it right!
