I'm a little confused by the phrasing of the question. Is it asking for the percentage of male perpetrators versus the percentage of female perpetrators? Or is it asking for the total percentages that add up to 100%?

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. The question is asking about the percentages of male versus female perpetrators in a survey on fraud cases. I just need to match the percentages to the answer choices.

I've got this! The key is in the wording - it says "in a majority of cases, males" were the principal perpetrators. So the percentage of male perpetrators must be higher than the percentage of female perpetrators.
