The sixth-graders at Ethan's school got to choose between a field trip to a museum and a field trip to a factory. 38 sixth-graders picked the museum. If there are 76 sixth-graders in all at Ethan's school, what percentage of the sixth-graders picked the museum?

Respuesta :

Answer: 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of sixth-graders at Ethan's school = 76

Number of sixth-graders that picked the museum = 38

Number of sixth-graders that picked the factory = 76 - 38 = 38

Percentage that picked museum:

= Students that picked museum/Total students × 100

= 38/76 × 100

= 0.5 × 100

= 50%

50% picked the museum.
