The ratio of males to females is 1.4 : 1, so the fraction of the total that is made up of males is 1.4/(1.4 + 1) = 1.4/2.4 = 7/12.


There were (7/12)*475 ≈ 277 males at the party.

There were 475 - 277 = 198 females at the party.

If 28% of a sum is $100.80, what is the sum?
lbvjy [14]
Call the sum S. Then, you can use the definition of percentage to obtain an equation to find the value of S: 1) 28% = 28 / 100; 2) 28% of x = (28/100)x; 3) that is equal to $100.80 => (28/100)x = 100.8 => x = 100.8 * 100 / 28 => x = 360. You can verify that the 28% of 360 is 100.80: 360 * 28/100 = 100.80. <span>Then, the answer is $360.</span>
