there are 3 ladies for every 2 men qt a party if there are 40 men at the party how many ladies are at the party . show your working A) 20 B) 50 C) 60 D) 120
Ok so the constant is 3:2 so if we do x for women then it would be x:40. To find x we do 40/2 which is 20 so then you multiply 20 to 3 to get the amount of women for every 40 men which is 60 women B)60 40:60 I hope that helps
