Answer:
20 GENTS TEACHER AND 30 LADY TEACHERS
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of gents teacher be x. Then the number of ladies will be 50 - x.
So, the average weight is ((40x) + 50(50-x)/ 50 )which is given to be 46
(40x + 2500 - 50x)/50 = 46
-10x +2500 = 50*46
-10x + 2500 = 2300
-10x = 2300 - 2500
-10x = - 200
x = 200/10 = 20
So, there are 20 gents and 30 ladies are there.
