In a holiday resort, the ratio of men to women is 5:6 and the ratio of
women to children is 4:7. There are 200 men staying at the resort. How
many children are there?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

Men: 5 : 3 = 20 : 12

Women: 7 : 4 = 21 : 12

So for every 12 children there are 20 men to 21 women.

Neither men nor women compose more than half of the concert population

There are 200 men staying at the resort. Then the number of children in the resort will be 292.

What are ratio and proportion?

A ratio is a collection of ordered integers a and b represented as a/b, with b never equaling zero. A proportionate expression is one in which two items are equal.

In a holiday resort, the ratio of men to women is 5:6 and the ratio of women to children is 4:7.

There are 200 men staying at the resort.

Then the number of women in the resort will be

Women / 200 = 5 / 6

Women = 500 / 3

Then the number of children in the resort will be

(500/3)  / children = 4/7

                children = 291.67

                children ≈ 292
