eighths are women. There are 12 more men in the orchestra than there are

Answer:

18 women

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know:

5/8 of the orchestra are male player, and 3/8 are female.

5/8 is a 1/4 more than 3/8.

If 12 is 1/4 of x, then x is 48.

Multiply 48 by 3/8 to get your answer.

48*3/8 = 144/8 = 18 women
