Simplify 3/2n to 3n/2

3n/2 - 8/3 = 29/12

Add 8/3 to both sides

3n/2 = 29/12 + 8/3

Simplify 29/12 + 8/3 to 61/12

3n/2 = 61/12

Multiply both sides by 2

3n = 61/12 × 2

Simplify 61/12 × 2 to 122/12

3n = 61/6

Divide both sides by 3

n = 61/6/3

Simplify 61/6/3 to 61/6 × 3

n = 61/6 × 3

Simplify 6 × 3 to 18

A city police force is made up of 24% females. If there are 72 females on the force, how many males are on the force?

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

228 males

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of males.

This means x + 72 is the total number of people.

So $\frac{72}{x+72}$ is the fraction of females in the force.

Thus, we can form the equation:

$\frac{72}{x+72} = 0.24$

$x+72 = \frac{72}{0.24}$

$x = \frac{72}{0.24} -72$

$x = 228$

Thus, the answer is 228 males.
