Question

Total population of a city is 8000, out of which 6000 are males. What percentage of the total population are males (in %)?

• A. 75

Answer 1

The correct option is A 75
You know,
Percentage $\%$ = $\frac{Part}{Whole}\times 100$

Here, total population = 8000
Male population = 6000

∴ Percentage of male population will be
$=\frac{Part}{Whole}\times 100$

$=\frac{6000}{8000}\times 100$

$=\frac{6}{8}\times 100$

$=75\%$

So, $75\%$ of total population are males.
