The percent abundance of each nail sample would 61.5 and 38.5% respectively.
What is percent abundance?
The percent abundance of a component of a sample is the ratio of the amount of the component and the total amount of the sample itself.
The percent abundance can be mathematically expressed as:
Percent component in a sample = amount of component/amount of total sample x 100
In this case, the total number of nails can be calculated as:
123 + 77 = 200 nails.
Percent of 4d nails = 123/200 x 100 = 61.5%
Percent of 14d nails = 77/200 x 100 = 38.5%
This means that the percent component of each of the nail sizes in the sample is 61.5 and 38.5% respectively.
