Dear Student,

Please find below the solution to the asked query:

Given : There are 45 persons working in a office. If the number of females is 25 and the remaining are males , So

Number of males  =  45 - 25 = 20 

So,

a ) The ratio of  the number of females to number of males = 2520 = 54 
So,

The ratio of  the number of females to number of males = 5 : 4                                               ( Ans )

b ) The ratio of  the number of  males to number of females = 2025 = 45
