Answer : there are 51.2 boys in the class ( l don't know if I did this wrong because it's a decimal - sorry ! )

Step - by - step explanation :

Whole = part times 100, divided by percentage

32 x 100 = 3,200 / 62.5 = 51.2

Answer: The answer is 12

Step-by-step explanation: percentage left by minusing 62.5 - 100 is 37.5 so 37.5% of 32 is 12.
