What percentage of girls prefer to watch a TV series
To find the percentage of girls who prefer to watch a TV series, we can use the following formula:
Number of girls who prefer to watch TV series / Total number of girls * 100%
So, 152 girls prefer to watch a TV series out of a total of 249 girls.
(152 / 249) * 100% = 61.04%
Therefore, approximately 61.04% of girls prefer to watch a TV series.
