I believe that if you just look at 15-35 males then it accounts for most of it. So it's more like 5% does 50% but I don't have the specific numbers at hand.
Well, we have some data right in the screencap. If we assume black and white males commit crimes approximately proportionately to females of the same, then you can use that 88% breakdown.
I know women outnumber men slightly, but easy maths, easy maths:
50% of 13.4% is 6.7%. 88% of 55.9% is 49.2%.
So 6.7% of the population commits 49.2% of the crime. Now, obviously babies aren't committing crimes, and neither are many 80 year olds, so your off the cuff estimate of 5% doing 50% is actually likely surprisingly close.
