Question

11. The ratio of male and female workers in a company is 2:7. If the total
number of workers are 810, find the number of female workers.​

Answer 1

Answer:

630

Step-by-step explanation:

let the no. of male and females workers be 2x and 7x

then,

2x+7x=810

9x=810

x=810/9

x=90

therefore,

no. of male workers= 2x

=2*90

=180

no. of female workers=7x

=7*90

= 630.

hope this helps you.

Answer 2

ratio of male and female = 2:7

total number of workers = 810

then,

2x + 7x = 810

9x = 810

x = 810 / 9

x = 90

female workers = 7x = 7 × 90 = 630
