There are more white people then black people.
Lets say we have 100 white people and 10 black people.
If 20 white people use crack and 5 black people use crack, we can say that more white people use crack then black people.
But, we can also so that the percentage of blacks using crack (50%) is higher then the percentage of whites using crack (20%).
