Total number of adults are 150 that complete the survey in which 80 are women and 70 are men and the ratio of men:women in its simplest form is 7:8 which can be determine by using simple arithmetic operations.

Given :

Total number of adults = 150.

Total number of Women = 80.

Arithmetic operations can be use to determine the total number of Men. To evaluate the total number of men following steps can be use:

  • Step 1 - Let the total number of men be x.

  • Step 2 - Now, the total number of adults is 150 that is:

        150 = x + 80   ---- (1)

  • Step 3 - Subtract 80 from both the sides of the equation (1).

        150 - 80 = x + 80 - 80

        70 = x

Therefore, the total number of men present in 150 adults are 70. Now, the ratio of men:women is given by:

[tex]\rm \dfrac{men}{women} = \dfrac{70}{80}[/tex]

[tex]\rm \dfrac{men}{women } = \dfrac{7}{8}[/tex]

So, the ratio men:women in its simplest form is 7:8.
