The ratio of men to women working for a company is 5 to 8 .

for 5 men there is 8 women

5men /8 women = ???men / 224 women

so cross multiplication

n men = 224 x 5 /8 = 140 men

the number of employees = 140 men + 224 women = 364

The ratio of men to women working for a company is 5 to 8 . If there are 224 women working for the company, what is the total number of employees?
