Let a be the amount of peanuts; and

Let b the amount of walnuts

 

Equation 1 would be: A + B = 100

249a + 389b = 319 (100)

Equation 2 would be: 249a + 389b = 31900

 

From equation 1:

a = 100 – b

249 (100 – b) + 389b = 31900

24900 – 249b + 389b = 31900

140b = 7000

b = 50 lbs

 

then from equation 1:

A + 50 = 100

A = 50 pounds

142.5, rounded to 143 women.

Step-by-step explanation:

A squadron with 750 members is the common multiple of the sum of 19 and 81.
