Answer 1

Answer:

24000

Step-by-step explanation:

40% are men

39% are women

so basically 21% children

which corresponds to 12600 given here

so by unitary method

40% men will correspond to 24000

Answer 2

Answer:

let x=100%=total population

40%M+39%W+y%C=100%

y%C=21%

given 21%=12600

100%=?

total population=100%×12600/21%=60,000

number of mens=40%of60,000

=24000
