In a certain class the ratio of men to women is 3:5. If the class has 24 people in it, how many are women?
Answer: 15
Explanation
Given the ratio of men to women is 3:5:
Step 1: Calculate the total parts in the ratio
Total parts = 3 + 5 = 8
Step 2: Determine the value of one part
Total people = 24
One part = 24 / 8 = 3
Step 3: Calculate the number of women
Number of women = 5 parts * 3
= 5 * 3
= 15
