Representatives from the student councils at three area high schools are traveling to the national convention in New York. North
Springdale High School is sending 5 more students than South Springdale High School and West Springdale High School is sending 6 more students than North Springdale. The three schools are sending a total of 46 students to the convention. How many of the students are coming from North Springdale?
The correct answer here is A) 55. This is because a positive integer is defined as any number greater than 0 and has no decimals/ fractions in it. Therefore, you would add 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10, yielding 55 as your answer.
