Question: 1 / 400

In a study of 100 patients with anorexia, if 70% were women, how many male patients were NOT overweight as children if 10% of men were overweight?

A. 3

B. 10

C. 27

To solve this problem, we first identify the total number of male patients from the group of 100 patients, with 70% being women. Therefore, 30% of the patients are men.

Calculating the number of men:

30% of 100 is 30, so there are 30 male patients in total.

Next, we look at the percentage of men who were overweight as children, which is given as 10%. To find out how many male patients were overweight, we calculate 10% of 30:

10% of 30 is 3.

This means that out of the 30 male patients, 3 were overweight as children. To determine how many men were NOT overweight, we subtract the number of overweight men from the total number of male patients:

30 (total male patients) - 3 (overweight men) = 27 men.

This indicates that 27 male patients were NOT overweight as children, making C the correct choice in this context.
