\n" ); document.write( "
Let number of members be M
\n" );
document.write( "Then number of males = \"matrix%281%2C3%2C+%281%2F2%29+%2A+M+%2B+3%2C+or%2C+M%2F2+%2B+3%29\"
\n" );
document.write( "Number of females = \"matrix%281%2C3%2C+%281%2F3%29+%2A+M+%2B+4%2C+or%2C+M%2F3+%2B+4%29\"
\n" );
document.write( "We then get: \"M%2F2+%2B+3+%2B+M%2F3+%2B+4+=+M\"____\"M%2F2+%2B+M%2F3+%2B+7+=+M\"
\n" );
document.write( "3M + 2M + 42 = 6M ------- Multiplying by LCD, 6
\n" );
document.write( "42 = 6M - 5M
\n" );
document.write( "M, or number of members = 42
\n" );
document.write( "Can you answer the question now? \n" );
