A total of 327 children and adults went to a bird park. There were 33 more adults than children at the bird park. Given that the number of men was 3 times the number of women at the bird park, how many men were at the bird park?
| Children |

| 4 u - 33 |

1 u |

Number of women = 1 u
Number of men = 3 u
Number of adults = 1 u + 3 u = 4 u
Number of children = 4 u - 33
Total number of people
= 4 u + 4 u - 33
= 8 u - 33
8 u - 33 = 327
8 u = 327 + 33
8 u = 360
1 u = 360 ÷ 8 = 45
Number of men
= 3 u
= 3 x 45
= 135
Answer(s): 135
