Answer:

52% are girls

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 650 sixth-graders and 338 of them are girls, we are then asked to find the percentage of how many are girls.

We have the fraction 338 over 650 but need to reduce it.

To solve this, we need to find the GCF of 650 and 338, which is 26, so divide both the numerator and denominator by 26.

[tex]\frac{338/26}{650/26}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{13}{25}[/tex]

Now divide the 13 and 25 :

13 / 25 = 0.52

0.52 * 100 = 52%

Therefore, 52% of the sixth-graders in the school are girls

Answer: 52%

Step-by-step explanation:

338/650 and x/100 since we are trying to find a persentage, we have to make an proportion

338x100=33800 because we cross multiply

33800/650=52 because 33800 is now over 650

And 52 as a persentage is 52% which is how we get to our answer of 52%

I hope this helps

Hopefully it's brainliest
