Question

At an International Dinner, 1/5 of the people attending
were French men. If the number of French women
at the dinner was 2/3 greater than the number of
French men, and there were no other French people
at the dinner, then what fraction of the people at the
dinner were not French?​

Answer 1

Answer:

let french men be x

so, 1/5 of the people attending french men = 1/5x

and french women greater than french men = x+2/3 => 5x/3

Unless "two-thirds greater in number" means the same thing as "two-thirds of one human being", you cannot have "2/3" stand for "2/3 more than". Also, x + 2/3 does not equal x + (2/3)x = (5/3)x = 5x/3. Did you perhaps mean "2/3" to be "(2/3)x"? If so, then your reasoning is valid.
