Question
120 men and 80 women were asked if they drive to work.
Altogether 1/4 of the people said yes.
1/3 of the men said yes.
What fraction of the women said yes?
Answer:
1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
In total there is 200 people (120+80)
1/4 of that is 50 people, keep this for later.
1/3 of 120 men is 40.
Subtract the men that said yes from the people that said yes. We get 10 women said yes.

Answer:
1/8 of the women said yes
