there are 60 students in a class.50 student are men.what percentage is women in this class.who ever answer this correct with explanation .I will mark them as brainlist​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There were 60 students in the class, so out of them there were 50 students who were men.

We need to find the percentage of women in the class.

For this, we need to find the number of women in the class.

So, it will be:-

Number of women in the class = Total persons in the class - Total men in the class.

= 60 - 50

= 10 women were there in the class.

Now, what we need is percentage of women.

For this, we need to :-

$\sf{Percentage = \dfrac{Women}{Total \ Persons} \times 100}$

$\sf{Percentage = \dfrac{10}{60} \times 100}$

$\sf{Percentage = 16.66 \ percent}$

So, 16.66 % is the answer.

Answer 2

${\bf{Given\::}}$

• There are 60 students in a class.

• 50 students are boys.

$\\ {\bf{To\: Find\::}}$

• The percentage of girls in the class.

$\\ {\bf{Solution\::}}$

As we know that,

$\orange\bigstar\:{\Large\mid}\:\bf{No.\:of\: Students\:=\:(No.\:of\:boys)\:+\:(No.\:of\:girls)\:}\:{\Large\mid}\:\green\bigstar$

$\dashrightarrow\:\tt{No.\:of\: girls\:=\:(No.\:of\: students)\:-\:(No.\:of\:boys)\:}$

$\dashrightarrow\:\tt{No.\:of\: girls\:=\:60\:-\:50\:}$

$\dashrightarrow\:\tt{No.\:of\: girls\:=\:10\:}$

Now,

☛ Percentage of girls in the class is,

$\orange\bigstar\:{\Large\mid}\:\bf\blue{\%\:of\: girls\:=\:\dfrac{No. \:of\:girls}{No. \:of\: students}\times{100}\:}\:{\Large\mid}\:\green\bigstar$

$:\implies\:\sf{\%\:of\: girls\:=\:\dfrac{10}{60}\times{100}\:}$

$:\implies\:\sf{\%\:of\: girls\:=\:\dfrac{1}{6}\times{100}\:}$

$:\implies\:\sf{\%\:of\: girls\:=\:0.1666\times{100}\:}$

$:\implies\:\bf\pink{\%\:of\: girls\:=\:16.66\%\:}$

∴ The percentage of girls in the class is 16.66%.
