Question

in a conference 0.3 part of delegates are women , and there are 700 men. Find the total number of delegate​

Answer 1

0.3 means 3/10

Therefore,3/10th of the total delegates are women

so the remaining are men   that is    7/10th of the total delegates are men

but we know that there are 700 men in total

Therefore,let x be the total no.of delegates

7/10x = 700 ;

 x = (700*10)/7 =

 7000/7 =

 1000 people in total
