Answer 1

Answer:

n =1

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of men = 1/6×90

=15

No. of women= 2×No. of men

= 2×15 = 30

No. of children= Total no. of people present in group – (No. of men+No. of women)

=90-(15+30) = 45

No. of children/No. of men =n/1 = 45/15 =3/1

So, n=3

Answer 2

Answer:

Thus n=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Among 6 persons there is one mam

The no. of man in 90 people=90/6=15

No of women are double of men

so women=2*15=30

Remaining person are children

so No of children=90-(15+30)

=90-45=45

Thus the number of children in the group: the number of men in the group =45:15= n : 1

so n/1=45/15=3

so n/1=3

or n:1=3:0

Thus n=3
