Question

at a student council meeting there was a total of 60 students present. of those students 35 were female. by what percent is the number of females greater than the males

Answer 1

..............16(2/3)% or 50/3 %

Answer 2

no of males=60-35=25
$percentage \: of \: males = \frac{25}{60} \times 100$
$\frac{125 }{3}$
$3 \times \frac{2}{41}$
$percentage \: of \: females = 100 - \frac{125}{3}$

$\frac{300}{3 } - \frac{125}{3}$
$\frac{175}{3}$
$3 \times \frac{1}{58}$
$\frac{175}{3} - \frac{125}{3}$
$\frac{50}{3}$
$= 3 \times \frac{2}{16}$
