There were 275 adults enrolled in the Sabrina Dancing School in 2022.
411 of the adults were men. Additional adults joined the dancing school in 2023. For every 4 men who joined the dancing school, 3 women joined the dancing school. If there was an equal number of women and men in 2023, how many women joined the school in that year?

After |
100 + 4 u |
175 + 3 u |
Fraction of adults who are women
= 1 -
411 =
711 Number of men at first
=
411 x 275
= 100
Number of women at first
=
711 x 275
= 175
Men who joined : Women who joined
4 : 3
The number of women and men in the end is the same.
100 + 4 u = 175 + 3 u
4 u - 3 u = 175 - 100
1 u = 75
Number of women who joined the school in that year
= 3 u
= 3 x 75
= 225
Answer(s): 225
