Answer»

SUPPOSE AMOUNT received by
men = 5x.
and amount received by WOMEN = 4x
According to question
5x + 4x = 180
=> 9x = 180 => x = 20
 Amount received by men = rs 100
Amount received by women= 80
Suppose the number of men be
y and that of women be (66 – y).
According to question,

$\frac{\frac{100}{y}}{\frac{80}{66-y}}$ = $\frac{3}{2}$

=> 660 – 10y = 12y
=> 22y = 660

=> y = 30
