Answer:

Fraction of females enrolled in the course = 6 / 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that

Total Number of males = x  

Total Number of females = 6x  

Total Number of Students = 6x + x = 7x  

Now, we have to find the what fraction of the course females candidates constitute.  

Female Fraction = Total Females : Total Students  

Female Fraction = 6x : 7x  

Female Fraction = 6 : 7  

Female Fraction =  6 / 7

So Total number of females enrolled in the course constitute the fraction = 6 / 7
