students at a school were on average 180 cm tall. the average female height was 170 cm, and the average male height was 181 cms. what was the ratio of men to women?
divide(subtract(180, 170), subtract(181, 180))
we ' re given a few facts to work with : 1 ) the average height of the females is 170 cm 2 ) the average height of the males is 181 cm 3 ) the average of the group is 180 cm we ' re asked for the ratio of men to women . w = number of women m = number of men ( 170 w + 181 m ) / ( w + m ) = 180 170 w + 181 m = 180 w + 180 m 1 m = 10 w m / w = 10 / 1 the ratio of men to women is 10 to 1 . e
