After finding the all the variables, they will all equal 1 in the equation
p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1
After checking, you are able to find the percentages of the of the Dominant, Recessive, and Hetero individuals.
To find the number of Homo Dom individuals, you multiply .23 x 1000 (the population). You will find that 230 individuals out of 1000 have the Dominant trait.
To find the number of Homo Rec individuals, you multiply .27 x 1000 (the population). You will find that 270 individuals out off 1000 have the recessive trait.
To find the number of Hetero Dom individuals, you multiply .50 x 1000 (the population). You will find that 500 of the individuals out of 1000 have the dominant trait and don't show the recessive allele.
