Where do Volcanoes occur?

Sixty percent of all volcanoes occur at the boundaries of two tectonic plates. Most volcanoes occur around the 'Ring of fire' that encircles the pacific ocean. Some volcanoes, like those that are from the Hawaiian islands, occur in the interior plates at areas called 'Hot Spots'.
