Given that the twist-boat conformer of cyclohexane is 3.8 kcal/mole (or 15.9 kJ/mol) higher in free energy

Question:

Given that the twist-boat conformer of cyclohexane is 3.8 kcal/mole (or 15.9 kJ/mol) higher in free energy than the chair conformer, calculate the percentage of twist-boat conformers present in a sample of cyclohexane at 25°C. Does your answer agree with the statement made in Section 2.12 about the relative number of molecules in these two conformations?
