Answer:

53%

Explanation:

Using Venn diagram

Let the people who are employees and stockholders be X, so to get the value of employees alone and stockholders alone,

We will have

0.62-X + X + 0.47-X = 1

Collect like terms

O.62+047-X=1

1.09-X=1

1.09-1=X

X=0.9

Therefore X=9%

To get the value of stockholders alone, we subtract the value of X from its value

62% - 9%= 53%.

Answer: First, we add the options

A) 62%

B) 53%

C) 45%

D) 38%

E) 34%

53%. Option B.

Explanation:

We are dealing with percentages, therefore the total will always be 0.

From the question:

Stockholders are 62%

Employees are 47%

Total = 62 + 47 = 109

Therefore,

109 - 100 = 9%

Therefore, stockholders who were not employees, i.e. only stockholders are:

62 - 9 = 53%

Option B.
