Math Problem Statement
In a school, there are three houses : Red, Blue , and Green. Each houses has a certain number of students, and each student must choose to travel to either the Museum or Red Fort. The total number of students accross all three houses is 800, with the Red House having 350 students. Students travelling to the Museum : The Blue house has 150 students.the total number of males and total number of females from the Red and Green houses together are equal.The Red House has an equal number of males and females. Students Travelling to the Red Fort : the Green house has 120 Students, which is twice the number of students in the Blue house. The number of students from the Red House is 60% of the total number of students from all houses travelling to the Red Fort . The ratio of males to females in the Red, Blue, and Green houses is 3:2, 1:1, and 5:1 , respectively.
Solution
To solve this problem, we need to determine the distribution of students across the different houses and destinations (Museum and Red Fort), taking into account the given ratios of males to females.
1. Distribute Total Students Among Houses
We know:
- Total students across all houses:
- Students in the Red House:
Let the number of students in the Blue House be , and in the Green House be . Thus, we have:
2. Distribute Students Traveling to Museum
We know:
- Blue House has students traveling to the Museum.
- The total number of males and females from Red and Green houses together is equal.
- The Red House has an equal number of males and females.
Let:
- Number of students traveling to the Museum from Red House be .
- Number of students traveling to the Museum from Green House be .
Thus:
- males and females travel from the Red House (since males = females in Red House).
- Let be the number of males traveling from the Green House and be the number of females.
The equation for gender equality in Red and Green Houses traveling to the Museum is:
Since the total number of males and females are equal:
3. Distribute Students Traveling to Red Fort
- The Green House has students traveling to the Red Fort.
- The number of students from the Blue House traveling to the Red Fort is .
- Let be the number of students traveling to the Red Fort from the Red House.
From the problem statement:
Let the total number of students traveling to the Red Fort be :
Substituting :
Thus, .
4. Ratio of Males to Females
Given:
- Red House:
- Blue House:
- Green House:
Calculate the number of males and females using the ratios and distribution calculated earlier.
Since the number of males and females in the Red House is equal, can be computed by:
And similar calculations apply to the other houses.
Summary
With the provided details:
- The number of students per house traveling to Museum/Red Fort.
- Gender ratio.
- Total students per house.
These details can now be computed accurately and broken down according to the given ratios and constraints.
