    Ina school, out of 300 students, 70% are girls and 30% are boys. if 30 girls leave and no new boy is admitted, what is the new% of girls in the school.

    Current ratios:
    • Girls = 70% of 300 = 210
    • Boys = 30% of 300 = 90
    Ratios after girls leave:
    • Girls = 210 - 30 = 180
    • Boys = 90
    • Total = 180 + 90 = 270
    • Girls Percent = 180/270 = 2/3 = 66 & 2/3%
