Given ratio between male and female teachers
= 5 : 8
Number of female teachers = 56
Let number of male teachers be x
By Using Ratio and proportion method
=> 5 : 8 :: x : 56
Product of extreme = Product of mean
=> 8x = 56 × 5
=> x = (56 × 5) / 8
=> x = 7 × 5
=> x =35
So there are 35 male teachers.
= 5 : 8
Number of female teachers = 56
Let number of male teachers be x
By Using Ratio and proportion method
