>>> We have a total of 315 members, out of which 4/15 are male. thus the number of male members out of 315 will be:
members
Remaining members are female, which are members.
so choice (D) is correct.
and my other question is
A chef prepared five chocolate tortes for a dinner party.The guests consumed 2 5/16 tortes.How many tortes are let?
A:2 11/16
B:3 11/16
C:2 9/16
D:3 9/16
>>> total chocolate tortes prepared = 5.
The guests consumed tortes = tortes.
so tortes left will be:
tortes.
So choice (A) is correct.
Hope this helps.
