The ratio of males to females at a party is 3 : 5 There are 12 more females than males.

How many people are at the party?

48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratio of males to females at a party is 3 : 5.

Let the numbers of males and females be 3x and 5x respectively.

According to the given description:

No of females = No of males + 13

Therefore,

5x = 3x + 12

5x - 3x = 12

2x = 12

x = 12/2

x = 6

No of people at the party

= 3x + 5x

= 8x

= 8*6

= 48

because they could drop even lower..
