To solve this, you want to make a proportion: 35/56 x x/100.
1.) First you multiply 35 and 100= 3500
2.) Second divide 3500 by 56= 62.5
3.) Third, add the percent sign making the final answer 62.5%
35 out of 56 looks like a fraction and fractions are division so you divide 56 by 35 to get a decimal.

[tex] \frac{35}{56} =0.625[/tex]

Now, to turn the decimal into a percentage, multiply by 100.

[tex]0.625(100)=62.5[/tex]

62.5% of the guests are male.
