Answer:

A. 100(100−z)(100−y)100−z(100−y)100(100−z)(100−y)1002−z(100−y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution

F = yx/100 M = (100-y)x/100

Males left after retirement = ((100-z)/100)*((100-y)x/100)

=x*(100-z)(100-y)/1002

That's the total number of males

the total number of people is:

yx/100 + x*(100-z)(100-y)/1002

(100-z)(100-y)/(1002 - z(100-y))

And denominator 100y + (100-z)(100-y)

= (100)(100 – z)(100 – y) / 1002 – z(100 – y) as our answer

Option a is the closest answer in the option
