Solution:

<u>Note that:</u>

  • Men:Woman = 3:2
  • 54 women = Total woman in a company

<u>3:2 can also be written as 3x:2x.</u>

  • => Men:54 = 3x:2x
  • => 54 = 2x
  • => x = 27
  • => Men = 3x
  • => Men = 3(27) = 81
  • => Total employees: 81 + 54
  • => Total employees: 135

There are 135 employees in total.

x=22

3*22= 66 men

5*22= 110 women
