Question 982164

let's men be {{{m}}} and women {{{w}}}

if the ratio of men to women at a class is {{{3/ 5}}}, then  {{{m/w=3/ 5}}}


if there are {{{3600}}} men, then we have

{{{3600/w=3/ 5}}} cross multiply and solve for {{{w}}}


{{{3600*5=3w}}}

{{{18000=3w}}}

{{{18000/3=w}}}

{{{6000=w}}}

so, there are {{{6000}}} women at a class
