Answer:
(a) Percentage of girls = 55[tex]\frac{5}{7}[/tex]
(b) Percentage of boys = 44[tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
To find percentage, we multiply the fraction out of the total by 100%.
Percentage of girls = [tex]\frac{780}{1400}[/tex] × 100%
= 55[tex]\frac{5}{7}[/tex]
Percentage of boys = [tex]\frac{1400-780}{1400}[/tex] × 100%
= 44[tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex]
