Question

There are 143 people in an audience. Out of this number 63 are female. What percent of people in the audience are male? Round to the neatest whole percent.

Answer 1

Answer: 56% of people in the audience are male.

Explanation:

Given : Total people in the audience = 143

Number of females = 63

Number males = (Total people ) - (Number of females )

= 143 -63

= 80

The percent of people in the audience are male =
`\frac{\text{Number of males}}{\text{Total people}}*100\%`

`(80)/(143)*100\%=55.94\%\approx56\%`

Hence, 56% of people in the audience are male.
