So at a certain bank, we know that there is a female -to -male ratio for employees of four to five.
00:07
So that means for every four females, there are five male employees.
00:14
So we want to know if we have this ratio and we know that there are 80 females, how many males are there? with this situation, i want to take this four -to -five ratio, and i'm going to turn this into a fraction.
00:34
So i have four over five.
00:36
And i'm going to set this equal to the information that we have and find what we need to find.
00:42
So we know that with this ratio, we have 80 females.
00:47
So remember that females is on the top and males is the information on the bottom of our fraction.
00:55
So i'm going to put 80 in the numerator here, and i'm going to put x as a variable here because we don't know what that is...
