Question

If 85% of the workers in a factory are males and the number of female workers is 36,find the total number of workers in the factory

Answer 1

Answer:

Let x be the number of workers in the factory.

If 35% are women, then the remaining are men, which is 65%.

Thus, number of women is

100

35x

and number of men is

100

65x

.

According to the question, the number of men exceeds number of women by 252, then

100

35x

=

100

65x

+252

100

30x

=252

Thus,

3x=252×10

x=840.

∴ there are 840 workers in the factory.
