Answer:

Not enough information. (15% Men at family reunion)

Step-by-step explanation:

The question ask what percentage of men with respect to the total number of parents, who attended the family reunion; however, there is no information given on which subset of these people are parents. Therefore we cannot determine the percentage of men with respect to the total number of parents.

If we assume that all attendees of the family reunion are parents, the we can simply write:

3/20 == .15 == 15%

So there are 15% men at the family reunion. Likewise for the women we can say:

17/20 == .85 == 85%

So there are 85% women at the family reunion.

Cheers.
