In a certain company 30% of the men and 20% of the women attend night school. if 40% of all employees are men, what % of all employees attend night school?

Please show your work!
 
let E = total number of employees

let M = total number of men = .4E

let W = total number of women = .6E

number that attend night school = .3(.4E) + .2(.6E) = .24E

so ... what percentage of all employees attend night school?
