Correct choice: A

Explanation:

Let the number of males be 'M' Let the number of females be 'F' From the given conditions, (F-15)=2M.....(i) F=5(M-45).....(ii) By solving the equations (1) & (2) we get M = 80 Then substitute M = 80 in (1) F = 2M + 15 F = 2 x 80 + 15 => F = 175 Therefore, number of males = 80 and females = 175 in the party.
