Answer this question:Half of all the people in Nantucket will attend a planned meeting for a bowl game. There are 300 people in Nantucket, and the number of males going to the meeting is twice the number of females. How many females are going to the meeting?
If half of the people in Nantucket are going to the planned meeting, then there are 1 / 2 * 300 = 150 people going to the meeting. If the number of males going to the meeting is twice the number of females, we'll assume the number of females is x and the number of males is 2x. We know that x + 2x = 150. Adding like terms produces 3x = 150. After dividing both sides by 3, we have x = 150 / 3 = 50. The number of females attending the meeting is x = 50.
The answer is 50.
