Question

the ratio of men to women passengers in an aeroplane is 4:7 there are 147 women, how many are men? how many total number of passengers are there.

Answer 1

Let the number be 4x and 7x.
So, 7x = 147
X = 147/7
X = 21

So, x = 21
Then, 4x = 4 x 21 = 84
S

So,number of men = 84
And,number of women = 147

So, total number of passengers = 84 + 147 = 231.
