You take 32 and divide it by 80 to figure out what percent of the students play instruments. 32 divided by 80 equals .4. You take .4 for and convert it into a percent by multiplying by 100 to get 40%. So 40% of the school plays instruments.

32/80 = 0.4

So it would be 40% of students that play an instrument

Hope this helped :)
