To find the percentage of the sixth-grade class who said they would like to be a movie director, we need to divide the number of students who chose that job by the total number of students in the class, and then multiply by 100 to convert it into a percentage.
In this case, the number of students who chose to be a movie director is 92.
To find the total number of students in the class, we need to add up the number of students who chose each job:
84 (Online Game Designer) + 92 (Movie Director) + 124 (Professional Musician) + 100 (Professional Athlete) = 400
So, there are 400 students in the sixth-grade class.
Now, let's calculate the percentage:
(92 / 400) * 100 = 23
Therefore, approximately 23% of the sixth-grade class said they would like to be a movie director.
