what percentage of girls prefer to watch a tv series?
________%
61.0% (152 girls prefer to watch a tv series out of the total 249 girls, so (152/249) x 100) = 61.0%)
wrong try again
My apologies for the mistake. Let's calculate the percentage correctly:
Percentage of girls preferring TV series = (Number of girls preferring TV series / Total number of girls) x 100
= (152 / 249) x 100
= 61.0%
Therefore, the correct percentage of girls who prefer to watch a TV series is 61.0%.
