Complete question:

In a company, 37% of the 1500 employees are females.

Work out the number of males in the company

Answer:

The number of males in the company is 945

Solution:

Given that,

37% of the 1500 employees are females

Therefore,


Number\ of\ females = 37 \% * 1500\\\\Number\ of\ females = (37)/(100) * 1500\\\\Number\ of\ females = 555

Thus,

Number of males = 1500 - number of females

Number of males = 1500 - 555 = 945

Thus number of males in the company is 945
