Question

In a museum, the ratio of adults to children is 4 to 14. if there are 360 people in the museum, how many children are there?

Answer 1

Let adults= a
chilgren=c
a/c=4/14
a=4c/14

total=360
a+c=360
putting value of a
4c/14+c=360
(4c+14c)/14=360
18c=360*14
c=360*14/18
c=20*14
c=280

so there are 280 childrens

Answer 2

The correct answer is 280
