there are 99 males and 121 females participating in a marathon. what percent of the participants are female? enter your answer in the box. %

Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total participants

Total participants = Number of males + Number of females. So, (99 + 121=220).

Step2: Calculate the percentage of female participants

The formula for percentage is (\frac{\text{Part}}{\text{Whole}}\times100). Here, the part is the number of females ((121)) and the whole is the total number of participants ((220)). So, (\frac{121}{220}\times100). (\frac{121\times100}{220}=\frac{12100}{220} = 55)

Answer:

(55)
