Answer:

The answer to your question is there were 88 children

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Total number of people = 188

total cost = $5040

12 more adults than seniors

number of children = ?

adults = a

children = c

Process

1.- Write equations that help to solve this problem

             a + c = 188              Equation l

             a = c + 12                 Equation ll

2.- Solve by substitution. Substitute equation equation ll in equation l

           (c + 12) + c = 188

-Solve for c

            c + 12 + c = 188

            2c + 12 = 188

            2c = 188 - 12

            2c = 176

              c = 176 / 2

              c = 88

3.- Conclusion

There were 88 children

To divide 53 by 8 wont be possible so u find a number that when you multiply by 8 it gives u a number closer to 58 which is 8*6=48 i.e 53 divided by 8 is 6 rem, then to get the reminder you subtract 42 from 53 i.e 53–48=5 so the final answer will be 6 and 5/6

The Natchez Trace Bridge in Franklin, Tennessee, is 1,500 feet long. Suppose you build a model of the bridge using a scale of 1
noname [10]
Set this up as a ratio putting inches on top and feet on bottom. Then your first ratio would be 1/25 since 1 inch is the same as 25 feet.  In between them goes an equals sign and the the other ratio has an x on top (because inches is what we are looking for) and the 1500 on the bottom. Cross multiply to solve for x:
1(1500) = x(25).  Divide both sides by 25 to get 60
