Answer:

64% male

36% female

Explanation:

We know

A class has 50 students, 18 female, and 32 male.

If a representative is chosen in their class, what is the probability of having a male?

32 divided by 50, times 100 = 64%

So, 64% that the representative is male.

If a representative is chosen for their class, what is the probability of having a female?

18 divided by 50, times 100 = 36%

So, 36% that the representative is female.
