Answer:
No. of government employees = 120
No. of ladies working in private firms = 320
No. of college students = 160
Step-by-step explanation:
1. No. of government employees
Information given: 1/5 of 600
Note: When the word 'of' comes, you need to multiply.
1/5 x 600 = 120
2. No. of ladies working in private firms
Information given: 2/3 of the remaining
Remaining = 600 - 120 = 480
2/3 of 480 = 2/3 x 480 = 320
3. No. of college students
Information given: Remaining people
Remaining people = 600 - (120 + 320) = 160
