Explanation:

Step1: Identify the number of adult males and total males

From the table, the number of adult males is \(804\) and the total number of males is \(1235\).

Step2: Calculate the percentage

The formula for percentage is \(\frac{\text{Part}}{\text{Whole}}\times100\%\). Here, the part is the number of adult males and the whole is the total number of males. So we calculate \(\frac{804}{1235}\times 100\%\).
