1600 children and 1400 adults attended
<h3>How to determine the number of adults?</h3>
Let the children be x and adult be y.
So, we have the following equations:
x + y = 3000
1.5x + 5y = 9400
Make x the subject in x + y = 3000
x = 3000 - y
Substitute x = 3000 - y in 1.5x + 5y = 9400
1.5(3000 - y) + 5y = 9400
Expand
4500 - 1.5y + 5y = 9400
Evaluate the like terms
3.5y = 4900
Divide both sides by 3.5
y = 1400
Substitute y = 1400 in x = 3000 - y
x = 3000 - 1400
Evaluate
x = 1600
Hence, 1600 children and 1400 adults attended

Answer:
65 people.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to work backwards.
We end with 63 people, and at the stop we lost 19 people and gained 17.
; if x = # people at the beginning

There were 65 people on the train to begin with.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
One-eighth times three-elevenths
Required
Solve
One-eighth means 1/8
Three-elevenths means 3/11
So, mathematically; the above expression is represented as thus:

To solve this, we simply multiply the numerator and the denominator together.
After multiplying these together, the next is to check if the resulting can be simplified
If yes,we simplify it and if otherwise, we live it like that.
So,



At this point, the fraction can't be simplified any further.
Hence,
