Lagoon island is populated by alligators. Half the alligators are male. The rest are female. Among the females, 40% are juveniles. There are 15 adult females. How many male alligators are there? Let's answer step by step:
60% of female alligators are adults because 100 - 40 = 60. There are 25 female alligators because 15 / .6 = 25. There are 50 alligators in total because 25 / .5 = 50. There are 25 male alligators because 50 / 2 = 25. The answer: 25.
