Question

There are 30 actors in the school play. 60% of the actors are girls. How many actors are boys?

Answer 1

12

Explanation:

If 60% are girls, 40% are boys

100 - 60 = 40

40% of 30

(40/100)×30

= 12

Answer 2

Answer: 12

Explanation:

If 60% of the actors are girls, then 60/100×30= 18 girls

Subtract 18 girls from the total number of actors

30-18= 12 boys
