The number of flats in the village is 192.

According to the question; there are 224 bungalows in the village and the number of houses to number of bungalows are in the ratio 16:7.

In essence, the number of houses can be gotten as follows;

16/7 = x/224

By cross product; we have;

  • 7x = 224 × 16

  • x = 512.

However, we are required to determine the number of flats in the village;

Since the number of flats and the number of houses are in the ratio 3:8;

  • 3/8 = y/512

By cross product; we have;

  • 8y = 1536

y = 192

Ultimately, the number of flats in the village is 192.
