a farm is made up of brown and white goats . the number of male brown goats is 35 % less than the total number of brown goats . the total number of female goats is 20 times more than the number of female brown goats . if the total population of male goats is half the population of the female goats , what percentage of male goats are brown ?
since we are dealing in percentage let us pick 100 as the number of brown male goats . that means that the total number of brown goats is = 135 ( number of male brown goats is 35 % less than the total number of brown goats ) , therefore the number of brown female goats is 35 . the total number of female goats is 15 x the number of brown female goats = 35 * 20 = 700 female goats . male goats total population is half the population of the female goats = 700 / 2 = 350 therefore percentage of male horses goats that are brown = 100 / 350 * 100 = 28.6 correct option is e
multiply(multiply(divide(35, const_100), 20), const_4)
