Given:
A store employs 11 women and 12 men.
Determine what percentage of employees are men.
Solution:
Find first the total number of employees by adding the given.
= 11 + 12
= 23
Now to get the percentage of employed men, we divide 12 by the total number of employees which is 23.
=12/23
= 0.5217
Since we are given a decimal answer, in order to convert it into a percentage, we multiply the decimal by 100. Hence, in converting a percentage into a decimal, we divide the percentage by 100.
=( 0.5217)(100)
= 52.17%
Final answer:
52.17%
