Answer 2

Given: Number of girls = 50

Total number of students = 80

To Find: The percentage of girls

Solution:

The number of girls = 50

The total number of students = 80

Number of boys = Total number of students - Number of girls

                           = 80 - 50

                           = 30

Percentage of girls =( Number of girls/ Total number of studends) x 100

Percentage of girls = $\frac{50}{80}$ x 100

                                = $\frac{500}{8}$

                                = $\frac{250}{4}$

                                = $\frac{125}{2}$

                                = 62.5 %

Therefore, the percentage of the girls in the class is 62.5 %.
