After |
92 + 4 u |
161 + 3 u |
Fraction of adults who are men
= 1 -
411 =
711 Number of women at first
=
411 x 253
= 92
Number of men at first
=
711 x 253
= 161
Women who joined : Men who joined
4 : 3
The number of men and women in the end is the same.
92 + 4 u = 161 + 3 u
4 u - 3 u = 161 - 92
1 u = 69
Number of men who joined the school in that year
= 3 u
= 3 x 69
= 207
Answer(s): 207
