Question

Approximately what percentage of the total population of states A, D and H are majors?

• A. $57.2$%
• B. $59.1$%
• C. $62.3$%
• D. $66.2$%

Answer 1

The correct option is C $62.3$%

Total population of A,D and H $=29.7+30.2+38.5$

$=98.4$ million

Total minors from A,D and H $=11.4+13.1+12.63=37.13$ million

percentage of minor $=\frac{minorsfromA,DandH}{totalfromA,DandH}\times 100$

$=\frac{37.13}{98.4}\times 100=37.7$

percentage of major $=100-37.7=62.3\%$
