Let the two segments be x and y
x+y=45...1
X/y = 2/3...2
From1, y=45-x
Sub this into 2
x/(45-x)=2/3
3x=90-2X
5x=90
x=18
y=45-18=27

maria [59]

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.

x - 19 + 17 = 63\\; if x = # people at the beginning

x - 19 + 17 = 63\\x - 2 = 63\\x = 65

There were 65 people on the train to begin with.
