Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of children, then

number of men = 4c and number of women = 2c

Sum the numbers of each and equate to 266

4c + 2c + c = 266, that is

7c = 266 ( divide both sides by 7 )

c = 38

Thus

4 × 38 = 152 and 2 × 38 = 76

The group consists of 38 children, 152 men and 76 women
