Answer: 50% (just divide: 84/42)

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so there are 84 total students and only 42 of those students voted for an athlete.

All you need to do is divide:

84/42 = 0.5

Now to make a decimal into percent, move the decimal point two times to the right.

0.5 -> 50%

The answer is 50%. (im pretty sure)
