<u>The present age of the man is 36 years and his son is 11 years.</u>

Answer:

Solution given:

let the age of man be x.

and his son be y.

By question

x-6=6(y-6)

x=6y-36+6

x=6y-30. ......(1)

and

3(x+4)=8(y+4)

3x+12=8y+32

3x=8y+32-12

3x=8y+20. ...(2)

substituting value of x in equation 2 ,we get

3(6y-30)=8y+20

18y-90=8y+20

18y-8y=90+20

10y=110

y=110/10

y=11 years

again substituting value of y in equation 1 we get

x=6*11-30

x=66-30

x=36 years

The ratio of workers to supervisors and factories 32 to 2. The ratio of male workers to female workers is 6 to 5. If there are 8
Margarita [4]

Answer:

The number of supervisor in the factory is 9 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The ratio of workers to supervisors and factories 32 : 2

let the number of workers = 32 x

And The number of supervisors = 2 x

The ratio of male workers to female workers is 6:5

Let The number of male workers = 6 y

And The number of female worker = 5 y

The number of female workers at the plant = 80

So, 5 y = 80

∴  y = \frac{80}{5}

I.e y = 16

So, The number of male workers = 6 y = 6 × 16 = 96

Thus The Total number of worker in the factory =  The number of male workers + The number of female workers at the plant

Or, The Total number of worker in the factory = 96 + 80 = 146

Now , Again

∵ The ratio of workers to supervisors in factories 32 : 2

So, The number of workers = 32 x

I.e 146 = 32 x

∴ x = \frac{146}{32} = 4.5

So, The number of supervisors = 2 x = 2 × 4.5 = 9

Hence The number of supervisor in the factory is 9 . Answer
