GPrep Question
Are at least 10% of people 65 and older employed?
1) 11.3% of population is 65 or over
2) Of those 65 and older, 20% of men and 10% of women are employed.
I tried to make a double matrix for this question, but instead of 4 factors, this question has SIX factors (younger or older than 65, employed and unemployed, and men and women), so I wasn't sure how to tackle this problem.
OA is B
