Question

a college has a total of 105 teachers 19 more female teachers than male teachers. what proportion of the teachers are female?

Answer 1

62

Explanation:

This question is easy.

I don't know how to explain the formula as I am afraid it would be confusing, so I would just write the solution and you can analyse it.

105 - 19 = 86 (Find out how much the college would have without the more)

86 ÷ 2 = 43 (Find out male and female teachers in a seperate way without more)

43 + 19 = 62 (Female teachers)

Sorry if my explaination wasn't so accurate, I tried my best to make sure you understand it.
