Answer:

46.15%

Explanation:

# of girls + # of boys = total # of students

12+14=26

# of girls / total # of students = percentage of girls in the class

12÷26=0.461538

Move the decimal place over two spots or multiply by 100 for the percent

46.1538%

Round up if needed, in this case I rounded up to the hundredths place.
