Question

If there are 420 woman and 330 men what are their %?

Answer 1

Answer: Pct women = 56%; pct men = 44%

Explanation:

Pct men = total men/total people * 100

men = 750-420 = 330

Pct men = 330/750 *100 = 11/25 *100 = 0.44 * 100 = 44%

.

Pct women = 100% - 44% = 56%

.

Check the answer by checking the percentage of women.

women = 420

Pct women = 420/750 * 100 = 14/25 = 56%

Answer 2

56% women and 44% men. To solve add total number of people (750). Divide the number of men by the number of total people to get the percent of men in decimal form (0.44) and multiply by 100 to get 44%. The remaining 56% is the amount of women.
