Question

A club had 600 members. 60% of them were males. When 200 new members joined the club, the percentage of male members was reduced to 50%. How many of the new members were males?

Answer 1

Answer: 40

Step-by-step explanation: out of 600 members, 360 (600*0.6) of them were males. When 200 new members joined the club, the total number of members would be 800. If 50% of 800 members were males, then 400 are males. 40 new male members joined.
