Question

A group of teachers and students go on a school trip. For every teacher on the trip, there are three male students and five female students. If there are 35 female students on the trip, how many male students are there?​

Answer 1

21 male students

Explanation:

For every teacher on the trip, 3 male students and 5 female students are there

If there are 35 female students, we have to divide that by 5 to find the number of teachers

35 divided by 5 is 7

There are seven teachers, so we multiply by 3 to find the number of male students

7 x 3 = 21

There are 21 male students on the school field trip
