Answer:

There are 630 females in the company.

Explanation:

Calculate the number of males in the company, which is given as 210.

Number of males = 7 males (per 1 male) * 210 males = 7 * 210 = 1470 males

Now, to find the number of females, use the ratio of 3 women to 7 males:

Number of females = 3 women (per 7 males) * 1470 males = (3/7) * 1470 = 3 * 210 = 630 females

So, there are 630 females in the company.
