Researchers once surveyed students on which superpower they would most like to have. The following two-way table displays data for the sample of students who responded to the survey.
What percent of students in the sample were male?
Round your answer to the nearest percent.

The percent of students in the sample who were male is 48%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

Researchers once surveyed 100 students on which superpower they would most like to have. The following two-way table displays data for the sample of students who responded to the survey.

Superpower    Male    Female    TOTAL

Fly                      26           12           38

Invisibility           12           32           44

Other                  10            8            18

TOTAL               48           52          100

What percent of students in the sample were male?

Solution:

The probability of an event E is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.

The number of males in the sample is, n (M) = 48.

Total number of students, N = 100.

Compute the probability of selecting a male student as follows:

Then the percent of students in the sample who were male is:

Thus, the percent of students in the sample who were male is 48%.
