Explanation:
Using the proportion principle, the number of boys in the band from a total of 50 is 15.
To obtain the number of boys in the band :
• Total number of students = 50
Percentage of boys = 30%
The number of boys can be obtained thus :
Percentage of boys x number of students
Number of boys = 30% × 50 = 15
Therefore, there are 15 boys in the band.
