The number of female participants from Country D is what percent of the number of male participants from Country A?
A21
B24
C28 ✓ Correct
D31
Correct answer: (C) 28
Explanation
The figure is 28 percent, so the answer is 28.
The total males are 15 of 22 parts of 1100, which is 750.
Total participants from Country D are 12 percent of 1100, which is 132.
Male participants from Country D are 12 percent of 750, which is 90, so females are 132 minus 90, which is 42.
Male participants from Country A are 20 percent of 750, which is 150.
As a percentage this is 42 over 150 times 100.
That equals 28 percent.
