Answer 1

Percentage of Women's Magazines = 75%

Explanation:

The total number of women's magazines = 27

The total number of other magazines = 9

Now, Total magazines in all

= Number of ( Women's magazines + Other Magazines) = 27 + 9 = 36

Now,
`\textrm{Percentage of Women's Magazines}  = \frac{\textrm{Number of women's magazine}}{\textrm{Total number of magazines}}  * 100`

=
`(27)/(36)  * 100 = 75`

or, Percentage of Women's Magazines = 75%
