Answer:

609 males

Step-by-step explanation:

A city council organized a marathon race to promote good health.

Let the number of

Females = x

Males = y

There were 3 times as many female participants as male participants in the marathon.

3x = y

If the total number of participants was 812,

x + y = 812..... Equation 1

We substitute 3x for y in Equation 1

x + 3x = 812

4x = 812

x= 812/4

x = 203 females

3x = y

Solving for y

3(203) = 609 males

The number of males participants = 609
