Answer:
The total of men in the squadron are 203
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we need to use the rule of three:
The total of men in a squadron of 100 (81+19) is 81, so how many men for a squadron of 250:
81 : x
100 250
Lets make an X in the divisions:
81 X x
100 250
If you have the two numbers at the ends of the X they are multiplied and divided by the one left alone.
81*250/100
=203
