Answer:

The question you asked is different from the image. So, I'll give you two answers to choose from.

Question you asked: Percentage of male students = 56.25%

Question from image: Percentage of female students = 43.75%

Explanation:

A total of 32 students is 100%.

14 of them are female.

Divide 14 by 32 to get 0.4375 or 43.75%.

Subtract 100% by 43.75% to gain the percentage of male students.

Answer is 0.5625 or 56.25%.
