The schools says they will take the students to see the movie with more than 30% of the votes. Which type of movie will the 7th graders be seeing? Explain your reasoning. 7th grade movie votes:
drama-3
comedy-8
action-4

Work:
Fraction Drama:
Fraction Comedy:
Fraction Action:
Convert to Percent:

So if everyone voted there would be only 15 ppl in the class. So 15= 100%
Now put that on the bottom for your fractions 3/15 8/15 4/15 because you need to find the percentage of the whole 7th grade.
Now to get each% divide the top number by the bottom.
3/15=.2
8/15=.53
4/15=.25
Then times each decimal by 100 to get the decimal converted to percentage.
So 53% voted for comedy.
