Answer:

okay I'm not 100% sure but I have a good idea (it's okay if u remove me it's just an educated guess)

89%

Explanation:

if there were 100 students that would mean 1 student represented 1% of the results. so if there were 50 students 1 student would represent 2% of the results. so if two students were removed then that would mean the result would improve by a total of 4% which would get you 89%
