==>Given:

Total number of population = 54,200

Percentage represented on the pie chart by people living in duplexes = 5%

==>Required:

Number of people that live in duplexes

==>Solution:

Number of people who live in duplexes = % of people living in duplexes as represented on the pie chart/100 × total population
