Answer:

60% adult

40% children

Reasoning:

Add the adults and children first.

Then find the ratios of the children and parent percentages.

16:40 children

24:40 adult

16/40=2/5=0.4=40% children

24/40=3/5=0.6=60% adult

Answer:

40% is children and 60% in adults

Step-by-step explanation:

so if you add the two you have 40, 100% of 40 is 40 and 50% is 20, so we know that the children percent is less than 50, if you go through you will find that 40% of 40 is 16 therefor leaving the rest (aka 60%) to be adults
