Question

There are 300 males and females in a meeting. If the ratio of males and females is 3:2, find the number of females in the meeting.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Males =3X

Females=2X

total males and females=300

3X+2X=300

5X=300

X=300/5

X=60

Males =3(60)=180

Females=2(60)=120

Answer 2

Answer:

lets take number of males as x and number of females as y

x + y = 300

x : y = 3 : 2

3a + 2a = 300

5a = 300

a = 60

no of males = 3a

x = 180

no of females = 2a

y = 120
