Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe distribution (%) of people working in the night shift in the Sports industry is 18%, and among these, the distribution (%) of females is 20%.
So, let's calculate the total number of people working in the night shift in the Sports industry:
18% of 80500 = 0.18 × 80500 = 14490
The number of females in the Sports industry working the night shift is:
20% of 14490 = 0.20 × 14490 = 2898
Now, let's calculate the percentage of these females to the total number of people working in the night shift from all the industries together:
(2898 / 80500) × 100 = 3.6%
So, the number of females working in the night shift from the Sports industry is 3.6% of the total number of people working in the night shift from all the industries together.
