PartB.
Country music makes up 20% of Lisa 260 songs. How many songs are country music.
To find the percentage of Lisa's songs that are pop music, you can use the following steps:

Percentage = (Number of pop songs / Total number of songs) * 100
In this case, Lisa has 260 songs, out of which 117 are pop music. So we can substitute those values into the formula:
Percentage = (117 / 260) * 100
2. Simplify the equation by performing the calculation.
Percentage = 0.45 * 100
