• Ans is C
  
  T- total no. Of ppl
  W- no.of women
  (T-w)- no.of men
  
  T*t/100 = (T-W)*m + W*W/100
  
  T*t=T*m-W*m+W*W
  T(t-m)=W(W-m)
  W/T=(t-m)/(W-m).

• Ans is A
  
  because the ratio of women is the remaining of women from total to the total number of people so the result should be t-m/w+m

• answer is C...
  let total no of people in election be T and total no of women be W, then total no of men = T-W
  now according to the Question we need to find (W/T)
  
  a/c to information provide on saffron colored dress
  t% of T = m% of (T-W) + w% of W
  ie, Tt/100=m/100(T-W) + wW/100
  solving this we get
  T(t-m)=W(w-m)
  therefore, W/T=(t-m)/(w-m)
  hence c is the answer

• ans-c
  t(total people)=m(total men)+w(total women)
  also total people=total men+total women
  we have to find = total women/total people
  so after solving we get option c

• Total people(T)=M+W
  W=T-M
  option :a
• 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
• how everyone is saying answer is c while here we have to calculate no. of womens amoung the total no. of women and if we see total women is w =t-m
  and total people who came for election is m+w no other is mentioned .
  so answer is to be A

• is it a or c
• 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
• Ans is C
  m w
  t
  w-t : t-m
  t-m/(w-t+t-m)-> (t-m)/(w-m)
• 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
• the correct answer is C. that is t-m/w-m
• 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• Ans: (c)
  Total number of women= W1
  Total number of people= T1
  Total number of men= T1-W1
  
  (w*W1)+(m*(T1-W1))=(t*T1)
  W1(w-m) = T1(t-m)
  
  W1/T1 =(w-m)/(t-m)
• 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
• option A is correct.
  because total women attending the election=t-m
  and total people=m+w
  ratio=t-m/m+w
