Find out how many children there are first. Come on, this is simple fractions/percents/decimals/ratios.
Answer:
She sold 39 tall candies and 52 short candies
Step-by-step explanation:
x is all the tall candies
y is all the short candies
x+y=91
8x+5y=572
Use the method of Substitution to find out both x and y.
x=91-y
8(91-y)+5y=572
728-8y+5y=572
728-3y=572
3y=156
y=52
x+52=91
x=39
Well. im not 100% sure if this is correct. but what i did was did 5 x 8. which equals 40. so then i did 5 x 3. which equals 15. then i did 5 x 4. which equals 20. hopefully im correct. hope this helped! :)
