Answer: 240 men

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that there were 600 performers in a dance recital and that the ratio of men to women is 4:6.

Fraction of men at the recital = 4/10

Fraction of women at the recital = 6/10

The number of men performers that were in the dance recital will be:

= 4/10 × 600

= 240 men

There were 240 men at the recital.
