At a certain college, the ratio of men to women is 6 to 5. If there are 1,500 men, how many women are there?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Let 6x represent the men

5x represents the women

The ratio of men to women is 6 to 5 or 6/5


6x / 5x = 1500/ W  where W is the number of women

6/5 = 1500/W

W =  1250 women
