There Are 9 Male Teachers For Every 14 Female Teachers,If There 69 Teachers In All,How Many Teachers Are Female?

There are 9 male teachers for every 14 female teachers,if there 69 teachers in all,how many teachers are female?

Answer:

42 females

Step-by-step explanation:

9 males for every 14 females, the ratio is 9:14

9:14 = 69

Solve by transposition:

9x + 14x = 69

23x = 69

23x/23 = 69/23

x = 3

Evaluate x as 3

9x = 9(3) = 27

14x = 14(3) = 42

There are 27 males and 42 females.

Checking:

9x + 14x = 69

9(3) + 14(3) = 69

27 + 42 = 69

69 = 69

CHECK
