Question

In a college of exactly 2760 students, exactly 65 % are male. What is the number of female students? Express your answer as an integer.

Answer 1

Total number of students (male and female) in the college=2760. Total number of students including both male and female represents 100% (percentage) of students which is equal to 2760 number.

Number of male students is 65% (percentage) which is equal to
`(2760X65)/(100)`= 1794. So, total number of female students are (100-65)%=35% (percentage) which is equal to
`(2760X35)/(100)`=966 numbers.
