Question

the population of a town is 240000, the males and females are in the ratio 11:13. find the number of male and female population​

Answer 1

Answer:

Males = 110000, Females = 130000

Step-by-step explanation:

Total ratio = 11 + 13 = 24

Amount of males = 11/24 * 240000

                             = 11 * 240000 /24

                             = 11 * 10000

                             = 110000

Amount of females = Total Population - Amount of males

                                = 240000 - 110000

                                = 130000

Hope it helps

Have a great day ;)
