Answer:
60%
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the total number of sixth graders
To do this, add the number of girls and boys together
girls+boys
There are 60 girls and 90 boys
60+90
150
Now, find the percent of sixth graders that are boys
To do this, divide the number of boys by the total number of sixth graders
boys/total sixth graders (part/whole)
There are 90 boys, and 150 total sixth graders
90/150
0.6
Convert to a percent. Multiply by 100 or move the decimal place two spots to the right
0.6*100=60
0.6-->6.0-->60.
So, 60% are boys
