Answer: 80%

- - Why?

Well if there is 35 kids in the class and 7 of them are girls, you can subtract 35-7 to get the reaming total of kids, in this case, the boys.

Now we have a fraction of 28/35
28*35.
Lets convert it to a percent:

- - We have
Divide
28 ÷ 35 = 0.8

Always multiply by 100

0.8*100

- - Solve:

80%
