women=p/3(if total no of workers=p) & men=2p/3
married womn=(p/3)*0.5=p/6 & marrd mn=(2p/3)*(3/4)=p/2
wmn with chld=(p/6)*(1/3)=p/18 & mn with chld=(p/2)*(2/3)=p/3
without chld=p-(p/18+p/3)=11p/18
therefore ans is=11/18

11/18
men- 2/3*(3/4)*(2/3)=(1/3)x
women - 1/3 *(1/2)* (1/3)=(1/18)x
add =7x/18
1-add= soln

let total num of workers =1
women workers =13 and men=23
married workers =13*12=16 and hv child =16*13=118 then women workers have no child= 13-118=518
similarly for men 23*34*23*=13 have child
no child for men =23-13=13
total workers hv no child=13*518=1118

let say we have 36 of total workers

now 1/3 of 36= women => 12 => male=24
now 1/2 of 12= married=6 3/4 of 24 = married =18
now 1/3 of 6= have child =2 2/3 of 18 = have child =12

part of workers without children = 36-(12+2) devided dy 36 => 22/36 = 11/18 As

total workers=x
women with children=x/18
men with children=x/3
total=x/18+x/3=7x/18
without children=x-(7x/18)=11x/18
11/18 part of x are with no children

11/18
women=x/3(if total no of workers=x) & men=2x/3
married womn=(x/3)*0.5=x/6 & marrd men=(2x/3)*(3/4)=x/2
wmn with chld=(x/6)*(1/3)=x/18 & men with chld=(x/2)*(2/3)=x/3
without chld=x-(x/18+x/3)=11x/18
therefore ans is=11/18
