In Mrs. Wingo’s class, 6 out of 25 students are wearing blue shirts. What percent of students are wearing blue shirts?

Answer 1

For this question, we start by dividing the number of students in the class wearing blue shirts by the number or total students.

6/25 = 0.24

To change this decimal into a percent, we move the decimal point 2 spaces to the right, so it becomes:

24%
