Of the 288 persons working in a company, 112 are men and the remaining are women. Find the ratio of the number of |
(a) men to that of women. |
(b) men to the total number of persons. |
(c) women to the total number of persons |
Answer:
Given, total number of persons working in a company = 288 and number of men working in a company =112 \[\therefore\] Remaining persons, which are women in a company = total persons working in a company ? Men working in a company \[=288-112=176\] (a) Ratio of the number of men to that of women \[=112:176\] \[=7:11\] [both ratios divided by 16] Hence, the ratio of the number of men of that to women is\[7:11\]. (b) Ratio of the number of men to the total number of persons \[=112:288=7:18\] [both ratios divided by 16] Hence, the ratio of the number of men to the total number of persons is \[7:18\]. (c) Ratio of the number of women to the total number of persons \[=176:288=11:18\] [both ratios divided by 16] Hence, the ratio of the number of women to the total number of persons is \[11:18\].
