To find the portion of students who are history majors, divide the number of history majors by the total number of students.
Total number of students = Business + Computer Sci + Science + English + History + Social Sci
= 3700 + 2000 + 1000 + 2200 + 800 + 2300
= 10000
Number of history majors = 800
Portion of students who are history majors = Number of history majors / Total number of students
= 800 / 10000
= 0.08 or 8%
