Ratio of men to the number of women is 3:5 which means 3x+5x.Now,total no of people is 4800
= > 3x + 5x = 4800
= > 3x + 5x = 4800
= > 8x = 4800
= > 8x = 4800
= > x = \frac{4800}{8} = 600
= > x = \frac{4800}{8} = 600
Total number of men in the concert is 3x =3×600=1800
Total number of women in the concert is 5x=5×600=3000
Check:Number of men +number of women =4800
=>1800+3000=4800
