The ratio of men to women to children living in Newtown is 7:6:3. There are 36,000 women.
a) How many children live in Newtown?
b) How many people altogether live in Newtown?


Sagot :

A) divide 36,000 by 2 because that is the ratio between women and children. So there are 18,000 kids in Newton.

B) divide 7 by 6 and multiply by 36,000 to find the number of men living in Newton. Now add all of the people up: 36,000 + 18,000 + 42,000 = 96,000

Hope that helps
