Question

in a school, the number of female teachers is 11 more than the number of male teachers. if the total number of teachers in the school is 65 coma how many are male and how many are female teachers ?
​

Answer 1

total teachers = 65

male teacher be x

female teacher = x+11

65= x+x+11

65-11 =x+x

54= x+x

2x=54

x= 54/2

answer= 27 male teacher and (27+11) 38 female teacher

Answer 2

Let the number of male teachers be x

Then, number of female teachers will be x + 11

Given, total number of teacher = 65

According to the question,

x + x + 11 = 65

2x + 11 = 56

2x = 65 - 11

2x = 54

x =  54/2

x = 27

Total number of male teachers => x

=> 27

Total number of female teachers => x + 11

=> 27 + 11

=> 38

Therefore, Number of male teachers and female teachers are 27 and 38 respectively.
