The ratio of males to females at a certain company is 3:5. If there are 80 more females than males at the company, what is the total number of employees at the company?
Correct: B
Given that the ratio of males to females is 3:5, this means that there are 3x males and 5x females for some value of x. Since there are 80 more females than males, 5x - 3x = 80. This simplifies to 2x = 80. Solving for x, we get x = 40. So the number of males is 3x = 120, and the number of females is 5x = 200. The total number of employees is then 120 + 200 = 320.
