Answer:

53.931339977852% (you can round)

Explanation:

You add up 48,700 and 41,600 and you would get 90,300 as the overall population. Then you would put it in fraction form if you want to convert it into a percentage. The fraction form would be 48,700/90,300. You could simplify it to 487/903. Then you do 487 x . You would cross multiply and get

___ = ___

903 100

903x = 48700. Then you would divide each side by 903 and get x = 53.931339977852% (you can round)

Answer:

Approximately 53.9%

To be exact, answer is 48700/903

Explanation:

Percentage of men = Men ➗ Total population

48700 + 41600 = 90300

48700/90300 is approximately 0.539

0.539 * 100 = 53.9
