To find the number of students participating in school sports, you can multiply the total number of students by the percentage who participate in sports.
First, convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing it by 100. So, 0.600 becomes 0.6.
Next, multiply the total number of students by the decimal representing the percentage: 1000 x 0.6 = 600.
Therefore, the correct answer is C-60.
