Question
In a factory, total number of workers (male + female)
are 480. If the number of female workers is 40% more than the number of male workers in the factory, then find the number of female workers working in the factory.Solution
Let, the number of male workers in the factory be 'x'. So, the number of female workers = 1.40 X x = '1.4x' ATQ, x + 1.4x = 480 Or, 2.4x = 480 Or, x = (480/2.4) = 200 So, the number of female workers in the factory = 1.4x = 1.4 X 200 = 280
