      In a survey, 60% of the participants are women and 40%

      are men. Among the women, 50% are employed, while 70% of the men are employed. If there are 200 participants, what is the percentage of all participants who are employed?
      A 55% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 58% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 60% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 62% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 65% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Total participants = 200.  Number of women = 60% of 200 = 120.  Number of employed women = 50% of 120 = 60.  Number of men = 40% of 200 = 80.  Number of employed men = 70% of 80 = 56.  Total employed participants = 60 + 56 = 116.  Percentage of employed participants = (116 / 200) × 100 = 58%.  The percentage of employed participants is 58%.
