You then have 454 females whi=o didn't cook out of 1146 total people. To solve you can make the fraction 454/1146 is equal to ___/100. You multiply 454 times 100 then divide by 1146 to get 39.6160558. Also, this is a percent and you need to find the decimal value so you need to divide the by 100 to get .40 as your rounded answer.
