Question

In a group of 125 males and 80 females, what is the gender ratio? Then calculate the rate per 100 males.

Answer 1

Answer:

The gender ration males to females = 25:16

For every 100 males, there are 64 females.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of males in the group = 125

The number of females in the group = 80

The gender ratio from males to females = $\frac{125}{80}$

Now we can reduce the ratio by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 5.

= $\frac{\frac{125}{5} }{\frac{80}{5} } = \frac{25}{16}$

So, the gender ration males to females = 25:16

This means for every 25 males, there are 16 females.

So, for every 100 males, females = 16 times 4 = 64 females.

Therefore, for every 100 males, there are 64 females.
