Question

45% of the population of a town are men and 40% are women.what is the % of children? If total population of the town is 12000,then find the population of men,women and children.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total population be x

100%-(40%+45%)=15% are children

15% of x=12000

15x/100=12000

x=12000*100/15=80000

Total population=80000

men=45% of 80000

=45/100*80000

=36000

women=40% of 80000

=40/100*80000

=32000
