Let the total number of people be n. Then, the number of men be 1/3n. So, number of women is 2/3n. A/q 1/3n+200=2/3n. 2/3n-1/3n=200. 1/3n=200. 1n=200×3 1n=600 n=600×1 Hence,the total number of people is 600

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of persons be x,

⇒ Fraction of men = $\frac{1}{3}$

Therefore,

⇒ Fraction of women = 1 - $\frac{1}{3}$ = $\frac{2}{3}$

Therefore,

⇒ $\frac{2}{3}$ of x = 200

⇒ x = 200 × $\frac{3}{2}$

⇒ x = 300
