Answer: 14:3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Ratio between students(s) to female(f) adults is 7:6

while ratio between female(f) to male(m) is 4:1

So, we can write

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{s}{f}=\dfrac{7}{6}\quad \ldots(i)[/tex]

Also, we can write

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{f}{m}=\dfrac{4}{1}\quad \ldots(ii)[/tex]

Multiply both equations

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{s}{f}\times \dfrac{f}{m}=\dfrac{7}{6}\times \dfrac{4}{1}\\\\ \Rightarrow \dfrac{s}{m}=\dfrac{14}{3}[/tex]

So, the ratio of the students to male adults is 14:3 .
