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.

Sergio [31]
1 kilometer is 1000 (or 10^3) meters, so Eric walks .81*10^3=810 meters and YiTing walks .65*10^3=650 meters.
