The answer to this question is that 60% of the police department are men. 
To set it up, have \frac{54}{90} = \frac{x}{100} as 54 plus 36 equals 90. Multiplay 54 by 100 and then divide the product by 90 to get the pecent.

The answer is 60%

To set this problem up, you need to add both the number of women and men to find the total number of people employed in the police department. That number is your denominator.

After you have that value, place 54 in the numerator since that represents the number of males and proceed to simplify.

Hope that helps!
