Answer:

90 boys

Explanation:

The soccer league has 180 players, and 50% or half are boys.

Multiply the total number of players in the league by the percent that are boys.

total number of players * percent of boys

180* 50%

Convert 50% to a decimal by dividing by 100, or moving the decimal place 2 spaces to the left.

50/100=0.50

50.0–>5.0–>0.50

180*0.50

Multiply

90

There are 90 boy soccer players in the league.
