Question

One third of a group of people are men. If the number of women is 200 more than the men, find the total number of people.

Answer 1

Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of men be X and women be y

total people in group will be x+y

1/3×(x+y) =x

therefore y=2x. 1

200+X= y. 2

putting value of y in equation 2

200+X=2x

200=X

hence number of men are 200

Answer 2

Answer:

No. of group = x

No. of males = 1 x

3

No. of females = 200 + 1x

3

So, = 1x + 200 + 1x = x

3. 3

= 200 = x - 1x - 1x

3. 3

= 200 = 3x - 1x -1x

3

= 200 = x

3

= x = 200 × 3

= x = 600

So, the no. of people in the group are 600.
