a3=|a1|-|a2|= |0|-|3| = -3
a4=|a2|-|a3|=|3|-|-3|=3-3=0
S(4)= 0+3-3+0=0
a5=|a3|-|a4|=|-3|-|0|=3
a6=|a4|-|a5|=0-3=-3
a7=3-3=0
a8=3-0=3
a9=-3
a10=0
s(10)=0
So the values follow the seq -3,0,3
S(10)=0 => S(100) = 0
S(101) = 3

For 7 women - 20 children
For 3 men -15 children
-> for 4 men - 20 children

Combined ration of
Adult women : Adult men : children - 7x:4x:20x

So, new ratio of children to adult - 20x/(8x+7x)

-> 20/15 ->4/3
