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%?

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.
