$\huge{ \boxed{ \ \pink{ \mathfrak{Given}}}}$

• Out of 48 children in a class 36 are boys.

$\huge{ \boxed{ \ \pink{ \mathfrak{To \: Find}}}}$

• The percentage of girls

$\huge{ \boxed{ \ \pink{ \mathfrak{Solution}}}}$

• First let's find the numberof girls.

• Given total number of students = 48 and Boys = 36.

• So, number of girls= 48 - 36 = 12

• Now, let's find the % of Girls

• % of Girls = $\sf \dfrac{No\:Of\:Girls}{Total\:Students} \times 100$

• $\sf { \% \: of \:Girls = \dfrac{12}{48} \times 100}$

• $\sf { \% \: of \:Girls = \cancel\dfrac{12}{48} \times 100}$

• $\sf { \% \: of \:Girls = \dfrac{1}{4} \times 100}$

• $\sf { \% \: of \:Girls = \dfrac{100}{4} }$

• $\sf { \% \: of \:Girls = \cancel\dfrac{100}{4}}$

• $\sf { \% \: of \:Girls = 25}$

Answer 2

★ Given :

• Total number of students = 48
• Total number of boys = 36

★ To Find :

• Percentage of girls ?

★ Solution :

∴ Number of girls = 48 - 36 = 12

∴ Percentage of girls = 12/48 × 100

ㅤㅤㅤ ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ = 1/4 × 100

ㅤㅤㅤ ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ= 100/4

ㅤㅤㅤ ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ=ㅤ25 %

■ Hence, the percentage of girls = 25 %
