Question:
52% of the total number of students in a school are boys. If there are 260 boys, how many students are there in total? how many of them are girls?
Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
The total amount of students is 500.
Yo get this by dividing 260 by 52%, or 0.52
Now, we know 260 is the amount of boys, so to find the amount of girls, we subtract 260 from 500.
500 - 260 = 240.
There are 240 students that are girls.
This also means that 48% of the total number of students in a school are girls.
