There are 6 times as many females as males on the maths course at university. What fraction of the course are male? Give your answer in its simplest form.

Since you know that this is clearly a ratio what you need to find is that there are a ratio of females of males which is 1:6.

We can do it like this to create this equation in our problem.

M(males)
F(females)

M+F=total

6F+F=total

7F=total

F=(1/7)total

Which means that there are 7 from every student which leads to us bringing that there is 1 female and 6 male.
1 out of 7 is based as 1/7.

If this helps could you mark this as brainiest? Thanks, have a good day.

Okay so it will be 1123
