This shows that there are 141 men and 21 women in the meeting
Let the number of men present be x
Let the number of women present be y
If the total number of students present in the meeting is 162, hence;
x + y = 162 ............ 1
If there were 15 men more than 6 times the women, then;
x = 6y + 15 ...................2
Substitute equation 2 into 1:
6y + 15 + y = 162
7y + 15 = 162
7y = 162 - 15
7y = 147
y = 21
Recall that x = 6y + 15
x = 6(21) + 15
x = 126 + 15
x = 141
This shows that there are 141 men and 21 women in the meeting
