    Let's assume number of males 5 * a = 5a

    number of females 7 * a = 7a

    As per question total population is 396

    therefore 5a + 7a = 396

    12a = 396

    a = 396:12

    a = 33

    Let's place the value of in the equation

    5a + 7a = 396

    5*33 + 7*33 = 396

    165 + 231 = 396

    so 165 of 396 are males
