Question
In a factory, the ratio of number of male to female
employees are 7: 18. If 27 male employees and 12 female employees left the factory, then the ratio becomes 1: 60, then how many employees are there in the factory initially?Solution
Let number of male employees = 7x and number of female employees = 18x
According to the question,
(7x - 27)/(18x - 12) = 1/60
=> x = 4
So, total employees = 7x + 18x = 25 * 4 = 100
