Working Principle: Stratified Random Sampling

nx = (Nx/N)*n

where:
    nx = sample size for stratum x
    Nx = population size for stratum x
    N = total population size 
    n = total sample size

Given:

  Nx = 100
  N = 1000
  n = 0.5*(1000) = 500

Required: Probability of Man to be selected

Solution:

nx = (Nx/N)*n
nx = (100/1000)*500 = 50 men

ny = (Nx/N)*n
ny = (100/1000)*500 = 50 women

Probability of Man to be selected = nx/(nx + ny)*100 = 50/(50+50)*100 = 50%

ANSWER: 50%
