M=f+240
m+f=25000, using m from above in this equation gives you:
f+240+f=25000 combine like terms on left side
2f+240=25000 subtract 240 from both sides
2f=24760 divide both sides by 2
f=12380, and since m=f+240
m=12620
So there are 12620 males and 12380 females in the city.
Melissa lives 5/6 of a mile from the bus stop 5/6 of a mile is 0.83
Peter lives 2/3 of a mile from the bus stop, 2/3 of a mile is 0.66 miles
Pete does not live close to the bus stop than Melissa.
Melissa lives 0.83 - 0.66 = 0.17 miles closer to the bus stop
