25%
15%
To find the percentage, you would first calculate the number of students from the second audition who were asked to come back for the final audition. Since there were 6 students asked to come back for the final audition and they came from the second audition, the total number of students from the second audition is 40% of 60, which is 24 students.
Then, you would take the number of students asked to come back for the final audition (6) and divide it by the total number of students from the second audition (24).
(6/24) x 100 = 25%
Therefore, 25% of the students from the second audition were asked to come back for the final audition.
