This is a probability question.

We know that 370 fans are cheering for school A

We also know that there are 555 fans cheering for school B

Probability has to be represented out of all the possibilities, so add 370 and 555

370 + 555 = 925‬

This means that there are 925‬ total fans at the game.

Now divide the fraction to get your percent

370 ÷ 925 = 0.4

0.4 = 40%

40% of the fans are cheering for School A
