The ratio of number of children, women and men in colony is 6 : 4 : 3 respectively and the colony has at least 200 members. What will be minimum number of children in the colony?
Given, Children : Women : Men = 6 : 4 : 3
Let number of children be 6x
Number of women be 4x
Number of men be 3x
Total members in the colony = 6x+4x+3x = 13x
Given, 13x = 200
Here, 200 is not divisible by 13. So, Total members can be taken as 208.
13x = 208
=> x = 16
Therefore, Number of children = 6x = 6*16 = 96.
