67% or 603 employees in a company are female. How many are male?

6 answers

33% are male because there is 67% + 33% = 100%.
33%
I am trying to find the exact number of male employees, thats where I am having troubles at.

Like I tried,
x = the number of employees

x - 603 = the number of males

x = 603 - x
2x = 603
x = 301.5 and it show that its wrong
.33 * 603 = 199
199 is also wrong :/
total number of employees --- x
females = .67x = 603
x = 603/.67 = 900

so 900-603 or 297 are male
Yes its 297
Thank you Reiny, I had a hard time understanding that one.
