Calculation:

Number of female members in E = 12 × 126 - 576 = 936

Number of male members in B = 72 × 32 = 2304

Difference = 2304 - 936 = 1368

Required Percentage = \(\dfrac{1368}{2304} \) × 100 = 59.375% = 59\(\dfrac{3}{8} \)%

∴ Number of female members in health club E is 59\(\dfrac{3}{8} \)% less than the number of male in health club B.
