5 'parts' of the total company staff are men, and 8 'parts' are women.
That's 13 'parts' all together, comprising 364 people.
So each 'part' is 364/13 = 28 people.

Men = 5 'parts' = 5 x 28 = <u>140 men</u>

Women = 8 'parts' = 8 x 28 = <u>224 women</u>

<em><u>Check:</u></em>

140/224 = 70/112 = 35/56 =<em> </em><em>5/8</em>

140 + 224 = <em>364</em>

yay !

Ymorist [56]

<h2>∴The perimeter of the trapezoid= 30 feet</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the parallel bases of a trapezoid measure 2 feet and 6 feet and the legs measured 9 feet and 13 feet.

∴The perimeter of the trapezoid = sum of all sides

                                                      = (2+6+9+13) feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the additive inverse of the given numbers.

  • For finding it we may simply out -1 as multiplication in front of the terms .

<u>SOLUTION</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

→ 3/-7 - 11/21

→ -3/7 -11/21

→ 3×-3 - 11 /21

→ -9-11/21

→ -20/21

<u>SOLUTION</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

→ 9/5 ÷ 7/5
