Question

ratio of male to female passengers is 5:4. If number of female passengers are 76. Then, What is the percentage of female passenger in flight. it's urgent quick​

Answer 1

In context to question asked,

We have to determine the percentage of female passenger in flight.

As per question,

It is given that,

Ratio of male to female passengers is 5:4.

So, let the number of female and male passengers are 5x and 4x respectively.

Number of female passengers are 76.

So, we can say that,

$4x = 76 \\=>x = \frac{76}{4} = 19$

Hence, total number of male passenger will be $=5x = (5\times 19) = 95$

So, total number of passenger will be $=(4x+5x) = 9x = (9 \times 19) = 171$

Hence, required percentage will be,

$\frac{Female}{Total} \times 100\%\\=>\frac{76}{171}\times 100\%\\=>44.44\%$

Hence, percentage of female passenger will be 44.44%.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of male to female passengers is 5:4. If the number of female passengers is 76. Then, then the percentage of female passengers in flight is 44%.

The ratio of male to female passengers is 5:4.

If common multiple is x

then male passenger = 5x and female passenger = 4x  

The number of female passengers are 76.  

4x = 76

x = 19

So, male passengers = 5x = 95

Total passengers = 95 + 76 = 171

So, the percentage of a female passenger in-flight = $\frac{76}{171 } \times 100= 0.44 \times 100= 44 percent$
