It was recently established that females outnumber males by about eight to five. If there are 3926 people in this county, how many of them are females?

Sagot :

First, let's set up the ratio.

In ratios, this is written as female : male = 8: 5

If there are 3926 people,

8 + 5 = 13

8/13 * 3926 = 31408 / 13 = 2416

Therefore, there are 2416 females.
