You can put this solution on YOUR website!
firstly add your ratios together $\"3%2B5+=+8\"$
\n" ); document.write( "now total women is the $\"%28ratio+of+women%2Ftotal+ratio%29+%2A+amount+of+employers\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3%2F8%2A560+=+210\"$
\n" ); document.write( "if you wish to check if its right do the same for the men
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5%2F8%2A560+=+350\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"210+%2B+350+=+560\"$
\n" ); document.write( "therefore your value of 210 women working at the factory is correct, \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "hope this helps \n" ); document.write( "
