Let 6x represent the men

5x represents the women

The ratio of men to women is 6 to 5 or 6/5


6x / 5x = 1500/ W  where W is the number of women

6/5 = 1500/W

W =  1250 women

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

x = \frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x}{2} +\frac{3}{4} =\frac{7}{8}

→ Find the LCM of the denominators (2,4 and 8)

LCM = 8

→ Multiply the whole equation by 8 to get rid of the fractions

4x + 6 = 7

→ Minus 6 from both sides to isolate 4x

4x = 1

→ Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x

x = \frac{1}{4}
