Question

Two thirds of population in Cartown are women of the 40,000 people living in the town how many are women

Answer 1

Multiply the total population by the fraction

= 40,000 * 2/3
= (40,000 * 2)/3
= 80,000/3
= 26,666.66
Must round up since we cannot have a half of a person
= 26,667 are women in Cartown

Hope this helps! :)
