The total number of lawyers is 30.
\n" ); document.write( "The average height of the women is 164 cm and
\n" ); document.write( "the average height of men is 174 cm.
\n" ); document.write( "What is the number of women, if the total average of height for both men and women is 168 cm.
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Total length of men and women: 30*168 = 5040
\n" ); document.write( "================================================
\n" ); document.write( "Equations:
\n" ); document.write( "Quantity: m + w = 30
\n" ); document.write( "Length::174m+164w = 5040
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru 1st by 174 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "174m + 174w = 174*30
\n" ); document.write( "174m + 164w = 5040
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract and solve for \"w\":
\n" ); document.write( "10w = 180
\n" ); document.write( "w = 18 (# of women)
\n" ); document.write( "=======================
