Selamat Sadhya!
Step-by-step explanation:
M = number of men
W = number of women
100-M-W = number of children
Total number of pappadas
5M+3W+(100-M-W)/2 = 100
Solve for W
W = (100-9M)/5 .......................(1)
Examine equation (1).
In order to have W as a whole number, M must be multiple of 5
Therefore M = 5 or 10
If M = 5, W = (100-45)/5 = 11 and children = 100-5-11 = 84
If M = 10, W = (100-90)/5 = 2 and children = 100-10-2 = 88
A variable next to any number means to multiply, so we would do the inverse operation -- We would divide 0.48 by 0.6, which is 0.8. Therefore, W=0.48. To check your work, multiply 0.6 by 0.8, and what do you know? It's 0.48! :)
