Answer: 29,562 people

Explanation:

To find the answer for this question, you need to find 46.5% of 63,575.

To do that you simply divide 63,575 by 100 and then multiply the result by the percentage. See below

63,575*100=635.75

46.5*635.75=29562.375

Now, we need to round to the nearest whole number.

29562.375 --> 29562

There you go! Your answer is 29,562 men.

Hope this helps! :)
