Answer 2

black dresses or suits = 20% or 0.2

navvy = 25% or 0.25

brown = 35% or 0.35

other = 20% or 0.20

Explanation:

`\because x\%=(x)/(100)`

Given,

20% of the people are wearing black dresses or suits,

So, the people who are wearing black dresses or suit =
`(20)/(100)` = 0.2,

Now, 1/4 are wearing navy,

So, the percentage of people who wear navy colour =
`(1)/(4)* 100` = 25%,

Also, 0.35 are wearing brown,

So, the percentage of the people who wear brown colour =
`0.35* 100` = 35%

Thus, the percentage of rest of people = (100-20-25-35)%

= 20%

=
`(20)/(100)`

= 0.2
