The total number of boys who preferred red or orange Starburst is 29 + 10 = 39 boys
To find the percentage of the total students that were boys and preferred red or orange Starburst, we divide the number of boys who preferred red or orange by the total number of students surveyed and multiply by 100:
(39 boys / 180 students) * 100 = 21.7%
Rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent, the answer is 21.7%.
