Answer:
104
Step-by-step explanation:
women = 8/8
men = 5/8
all workers = 8/8 + 5/8 = 13/8
extra women workers = 8/8 - 5/8 = 3/8
so...
3/8 = 24
13/8 = x
( cross multiplication method)
3/8 x = 39
x = 104
Hence, there are 104 workers
Answer:

w = women
m = men = 5/8 w
w - 5/8 w = 24
w = 64 then m = 5/8 * 64 = 40 total = 104
