this is easy....
3/4 of 32000 = 3/4 times 32000 = 3 * 8000 = 24000 women
total is 32000 and women are 24000 of that, which leaves 8000 to be men!

divide 32,000 by 4. anwser = 1/4 of 32,000. 3/4 were women so 1/4 are men. 32,000 / 4 = 8,000.

if 3/4 were women, then 1/4 were men (unless you know of some other catagorization :)).
1/4 * 32000=8000 men.

1/4 were men. That's 32000/4 = 8000.
