Firstly, do not round off the answer to 1. It will result in inaccurate answers.

1% → 1.6

This is a decimal, but it doesn't mean the number of men /women are decimals. They will end up as whole numbers (refer to below)

Secondly, you've only calculated 100%. Don't forget the question is asking for number of adults. This means both men and women.

Men → 130%
Women →100%

Total → 230%

230%→ 1.6 x 230
= 368


Check :
men → 130% = 130 x 1.6 = 208
women → 100% = 100 x 1.6 = 160

Total = 368

Difference = 48
