20 teachers have a cup of tea at break time. 2/5 of these teachers are women. 3/4 of the teachers had sugar in their tea, 3/5 of which were male. How many male teachers didn't have sugar?

Respuesta :

Answer:

3 male teachers didn't have sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

total number of male teachers = 3/5 x 20 = 12

3/4 of teachers have sugar, which is 15

3/5 of 15 = 9 (number of males who had sugar)

total number of males (12) minus number who had sugar (9) equals number of males who didn't have sugar (3)
