Given:
Number of males = h
Number of females = (h-2)
Total number of visitors = 80
To find:
The value of h.
Solution:
We have,
Number of males = h
Number of females = (h-2)
So, the total number of visitors is:
[tex]Total=h+(h-2)[/tex]
[tex]Total=2h-2[/tex]
It is given that the total number of visitors is 80. So,
[tex]2h-2=80[/tex]
[tex]2h=80+2[/tex]
[tex]2h=82[/tex]
Divide both sides by 2.
[tex]h=\dfrac{82}{2}[/tex]
[tex]h=41[/tex]
Therefore, the correct option is D.
