Answer 1

As per given data of living children under 18 years of age , percent of children whose age is under 18 years lived with their mother only is equal to 39.3%.

As given in the question,

Let us consider 100% be the total percent representing the living status of children under 18 years of age

Given:

Percent of children living with both the parents = 49.2%

Percent of children living with only father = 8%

Percent of children living with neither of the parents = 3.5%

Let us consider percent of children living with only mother = x%

Required equation is:

( x + 49.2 + 8 + 3.5 )% = 100%

⇒ x + 60.7% = 100%

⇒ x = 100 - 60.7

⇒ x = 39.3%

Therefore, for the given data of living children under 18 years of age , percent of children whose age is under 18 years lived with their mother only is equal to 39.3%.
