A middle school took all of its 6th grade students on a field trip to see a ballet at a theater that has 1700 seats. The students filled 442 of the seats in the theater. What percentage of the seats in the theater were filled by the 6th graders on the trip?

Answer:

26%

Explanation:

Number of seats by 6th graders / Number of seats in total × 100% = Percentage of seats by 6th graders

442/1700 × 100% = 26%

Hope this helps! ^^
