Question

If there are 36 performer's in a dance recital and the ratio of men and women are 2:7.How many of the men where performer's??????????????????????

Answer 1

Ok, so there are 2 men per 7 women so we can just scale up so there are 4 men per 14 women and then 6 men per 21 women but there are 36 performers so we have to keep going till it equals 36 people so 8 men per 28 women = 36 people so 8 men!
