Answer :
Number of men = 112
Total number of persons = 288
Therefore, number of women = Total number of persons - Number of men
number of women = 288 – 112 = 176
(a) ratio of number of men to that of women =
⇒ ratio = 112/176
Dividing numerator and denominator by 2 we get
⇒ ratio = 56/88
Again dividing the numerator and denominator by 8 we get
⇒ ratio = 7/11
Therefore, ratio of number of men to that of women = 7:11
(b) ratio of number of men to total number of persons =
⇒ ratio = 112/288
Dividing numerator and denominator by 4 we get
⇒ ratio = 28/72
Again dividing the numerator and denominator by 4 we get
⇒ ratio = 7/18
Therefore, ratio of number of men to total number of persons = 7:18
Step-by-step explanation:
Total people working in a company =288
No.of men in the company=112
No. of women in the company=288-112=176
1)Ratio of no.of men to women=112:176 =>112/176
=>(16×7)/(16×11)
cancelling 16
=>7/11
7:11
2)Ratio of no. of men to total no. of people=112:288
=>(16×7)/(16×18)
Cancelling 16
=>7/18
=>7:18
