Percentage of the students that have never been to a museum = 64%

Step-by-step explanation:

The teacher took 25 students on a field trip to a museum. This means Total number of students (students that have been to the museum before + students that have not been to the museum before) = 25 students

Students that have never been to a museum before = 16 students

Percentage of the students that have never been to a museum = (16/25) * 100 = 0.64*100

=64%

Therefore,

Percentage of students that have been to the museum is 100-64 = 36%
