Answer 2

The total number of 6th graders surveyed is 20 + 26 = 46. Out of these 46 students, 20 have pets.

To find the percentage of 6th graders who have a pet, we can divide the number of 6th graders who have a pet by the total number of 6th graders surveyed and multiply by 100:

(20/46) x 100 ≈ 43.5

Therefore, approximately 43.5% of the 6th graders surveyed have a pet.
