Question:

At an event there are 500 guests, among whom 28% are adult males, 64% are adult females, and the rest are children. Find the total number of children at the event.

Options:

55

45

40

50

Correct Answer:

40

Explanation:

Total Number of guests = 500

Adult female guest = 28%

Adult male guest = 64%

Children guest = 100% - 28% - 64% = 8%

Now ,

8% of 500 = \(\frac{8}{100}\) × 500 = 40

So , number of children in guest list = 40
