Answer 1

Below!

Step-by step explanation:

We know that:

• 400 + 850 + m = 1500

Solution of Question A:

Percent of children: Total children/Total attendance

• => 400/1500
• => 4/15
• => 0.27 (Rounded to nearest hundredth)
• => 0.27 x 100
• => 27%

Hence, the percent of children is about 27%.

Solution of Question B:

Percent of women: Total women/Total attendance

• => 850/1500
• => 85/150
• => 17/30
• => 17/30 x 100
• => 17/3 x 10
• => 170/3
• => 56.67%

Hence, the percent of women is 56.67%.

Solution of Question C:

• 400 + 850 + m = 1500
• => 1250 + m = 1500
• => m = 1500 - 1250
• => m = 250

Percent of men: Total men/Total attendance

• => 250/1500
• => 1/6
• => 0.17 (Rounded to nearest hundredth)
• => 0.17 x 100
• => 17%

Hence, the percent of men is about 17%
