Cherry .. it seems u overlooked d condn tht thr r 100 labourers ..
so d soln shld b
thr 73 children , 8 women and 19 men ..
total is 73 + 32 + 95 which is 200...
it is mentioned tht every women came with her husband ..
I guess d info related to atleast half the women came with their husbands is superfluous and intended to confuse us ...
Please let me know if I am correct ..
I guess other solns r possible too ... so ans depeds on d options ..
cheers ,
Akshay
