What is the percentage of black Jews to white Jews in the world?

There are around 150,000 Ethiopian Jews, compared with 14 million Jews total. This makes Black Jews 1.1% of all Jews, since non-Ethiopian Black Jews are incidental thousands. Tribes such as the Lemba which do not engage in Jewish practices are not counted; and the Black Israelite Churches like COGASOC are not considered Jews.
It is unclear what a "White Jew" is. If you are strictly talking about Ashkenazim, they make up roughly 10.5 million Jews which is 75.0% of all Jews.
The remaining 23+% is made up of Mizrahim, Romaniotes, Bukharian Jews, Chinese Jews, Indian Jews, and other "exotic Jews."
