55%

80%

70%

Correct Answer:

70%

Explanation:

                       Boys    :     Girls

Average ⇒     68.5            57.5

                              65.2

No.        ⇒     7.7       :       3.3

                       7        :        3       =    10 (total)

Percentage of Boys = \(\frac{7}{10}\) × 100 = 70%
