Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 of the people are men

1/3 of the people are women

so,1-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{12-3-4}{12}=\frac{5}{12}

there are 50 children

Let there are total x no. people

now, \frac{5x}{12}=50

or, 5x=12*50

or, x=120

So, total no. of men=\frac{1*x}{4}=\frac{3x}{12}=\frac{3*120}{12}=3*10=30

So, total no. of women=\frac{1x}{3}=\frac{120}{3}=40

Q. More women than men are there?

=> Yes. There are 40 women and 30 men
