Answer 2

Answer:

The ratio of males to females is 7 : 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total population is 3540

Number of males = 2065

Ratio of number of males to females = ??

First find the Number of females present in the village :

$\bf{\implies} \: 3540 - 2065$

$\bf{\implies} \:1475$

Number of females = 1475

Ratio of Number of males to Number of females is :

$\bf{\implies} \:2065 : 1475$

$\bf{\implies} \: \frac{2065}{1475}$

$\bf{\implies} \: \frac{2065 \div 295}{1475 \div 295}$

$\bf{\implies} \: \frac{7}{5}$

$\bf{\implies} \:7 : 5$

$\therefore$ The ratio of males to females is 7 : 5.
