DAY 360

120 people are at a party. 2/3 of them are married. 3/5 of them are women. How many single women are at the party? How many single men? (Married means one man married to one woman.)

Answer:

32 single women .......... 2/3 x 120 = 80 people are married. 40 men and 40 women
...................................... 3/5 x 120 = 72 women at the party .................... 72 - 40 = 32
8 single men................. 120 - 72 = 48 men at the party ............... 48 -40 = 8
