Answer: The percent of female commissioned officers in the army in 1940= 5.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that ,

The number of commissioned officers reported by U.S. Army  in 1940 = 17,563

The  number of female commissioned officers = 939

Then , the number of female commissioned officers in the army in 1940  would be :-

[tex]\dfrac{\text{\text{Number of Female officers}}}{\text{Total commissioned officers }}\times100[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{939}{17563}\times100=5.3464670\approx5.3\%[/tex]

Hence, the percent of female commissioned officers in the army in 1940= 5.3%
