Calculating Suppose that only 200 sperm out of
the original 400 million sperm deposited in the
vagina survive the journey to the egg. What
percentage is this?

Respuesta :

0.00005 % sperms deposited in the  vagina survive the journey to the egg.

Solution:

Given that,

Suppose that only 200 sperm out of  the original 400 million sperm deposited in the  vagina survive the journey to the egg

400 million = 400000000

The percentage is given as:

[tex]Percentage = \frac{ \text{ 200 sperm }} { \text{ original 400 million sperm }} \times 100[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]Percentage = \frac{ 200 }{ 400000000 } \times 100\\\\Percentage = 0.00005 \%[/tex]

Thus, 0.00005 % sperms deposited in the  vagina survive the journey to the egg.
