Need to see the calculations
To find out how many people in the audience are female, we first need to calculate the number of males in the audience.
Given that 3/10 of the audience are male, we can multiply this fraction by the total number of people in the audience to find the number of males:
Males = 3/10 × 600
To calculate this, we can multiply the numerator (3) by the total number of people (600) and then divide by the denominator (10):
Males = (3 × 600) / 10
= 1800 / 10
= 180
So, there are 180 males in the audience.
Now, to determine the number of females in the audience, we need to subtract the number of males from the total number of people:
Females = Total number of people - Males
= 600 - 180
= 420
Therefore, there are 420 females in the audience.
