Direction (): Study the information carefully and answer the following questions:
A salon distributed 450 vouchers of free haircut and pedicure. The number of haircut vouchers were 130 more than the number of pedicure vouchers. The ratio between the number of male and female redeeming the pedicure vouchers is 13 : 7. The number of vouchers redeemed by male for haircut were 15 more than that of vouchers redeemed by male for pedicure. All the vouchers were redeemed.
Number of females redeeming pedicure vouchers are approximately what percent of the number of people redeeming haircut vouchers?
Explanation:
Say haircut voucher =H pedicure voucher P =H-130
H+P= 450,
H=290, P=160
Male getting pedicure= 160*(13/20) = 104
Female Getting Pedicure= 160*(7/20) = 56
Male Haircut= 104 +15=119
Female haircut= 290-119= 171
Required %= (56/290)*100= 19% approximately
