Answer: men = 15 , women = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of men to women = 5:4

Total ratio = 9

number of people = 27

number of men = ration of men / total ratio x total number of people

That is :

number of men = 5/9 x 27

number of men = 3

Number of women = ratio of women / total ratio x number of people

That is :

number of women = 4/9 x 27

number of women = 12

The class room have 15 men and 12 women.

Step-by-step explanation:

       The given is,

            ratio of  men:women = 5:4

            Total people = 27

Step:1

       Let, X= Men in class,

              Y=Women in class,

Step:2

      For total men in class are,

              ratio for men= \frac{5}{9}                 (∵ 9= 5+4, for men = \frac{5}{9})

      Number of men in class

                        = Total people × Ratio of men

                        = 27 ×  \frac{5}{9}  

                     X =  15

               Men in class, X= 15.

Step:3

      For total women in class are,

                 ratio for women = \frac{4}{9}          (∵ 9= 5+4, for women = \frac{4}{9})

     Number of women in class

                        = Total people × Ratio of women

                        = 27 ×  \frac{4}{9}

                    Y  = 12

                women in class, Y = 12.

Step:4

     Check for solution,

                  Total people = Men + Women

                                         = 15 + 12

                                    27 = 27

Result:

     Men in class are 15 and Women in class are 12. Total number of people in class are 27.

Mariko has an 80: 1 scale drawing of the floor plan of her house. On the floor plan
Ivan

Answer:

16,771.56 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to get to the result we will need to use the scale and the numbers that are provided of the dimensions of the room.

The dimensions of the room on the floor plan are 17.8 inches by 21.2 inches. We first need to multiply these numbers with the scale:

17.8 x 80 = 1,424

21.2 x 80 = 1,696

Now that we got the real measures we need to multiply these two values in order to get to a result as in how many square inches is the room:

1,424 x 1696 = 2,425,104

Now we need to convert the square inches into square feet to get to the final result:

1 ft² = 144 in²

2,425,104 / 144 = 16,771.56

So we have a result of 16,771.56 square feet.
