☘️ Question :-

_____________________________________

☘️ Given :-

  • One third of a group of people aremen if the number of women is 200

_______________________________________

☘️To find :-

  • total number of people in group

_______________________________________

☘️ Solution :-

let X be the number of women

and y be the number of men in the group

1st condition :-

\rm :\longmapsto\: \frac{1}{3} (x + y) = y \\  \\ \rm :\longmapsto\:x + y = 3y \\  \\ \rm :\longmapsto\:x = 2y -  -  -  -  - (1) \\  \\

___________________________

2nd condition:-

\rm :\longmapsto\:x = 200 + y \\  \\\rm :\longmapsto\:2y = 200 + y \\  \\\rm :\longmapsto\:2y - y = 200 \\  \\ \rm :\longmapsto\:y = 200 \\  \\\rm :\longmapsto\:y = 200 \: is \: the \: number \: of \: men \\  \\

____________________________

substituting y = 200 in (1) equation :-

\rm :\longmapsto\:x = 2(200) = 40 \\  \\ \rm :\longmapsto\:x = 400 \\  \\

so therefore total number of people in the group = number of men + number of women

\rm :\longmapsto\:200 + 400 \\  \\ \rm :\longmapsto\:600 \\  \\

so therefore there are 600 people in the group.
