Question

At a concert there are 3 times as many
women as men. 3/5 of the men and 1/3 of the women wear glasses. There are 120 more women wearing glasses than men wearing glasses .How many people are at the concert?

Answer 1

number of men --- x
number of men --- 3x

men wearing glasses = (3/5)x
number of women wearing glasses = (1/3)(3x) = x

x - (3/5)x = 120
times 5
5x - 3x = 600
2x = 600
x = 300

people at concert = x + 3x = 4x
= 1200

Answer 2
