Answer:
Exact percentage = 87.5%
Explanation:
We need to find out the per cent of the women in the village.
So the percent of one unit is represented by 56/64.
we want 56 out of 64 as a percentage
we multiply by the 100 .
=0.875*100
=87.5 %
So, final answer is 87.5%

Given
we have
Squaring both sides, we have
And finally
Note that, when we square both sides, we have to assume that
because we're assuming that this fraction equals a square root, which is positive.
So, if that fraction is positive you'll actually have roots: choose
and you'll have
Which is a valid solution. If, instead, the fraction is negative, you'll have extraneous roots: choose
and you'll have

which is not a solution for the equation, if we plug it in we have
Which is clearly false
