Answer:14 children are expected to be at the museum

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total number of adult and children in the museum.

Ratio of adults to children at a museum is usually 5:2. The total ratio would be the sum of the proportions of adults and children. It becomes

5 + 2 = 7

There are currently 35 adults at the museum. It means that

5/7 × x = 35

5x/7 = 35

5x = 7 × 35 = 245

x = 245/5 = 49

The total number of adults and children in the museum is 49

The number of children in the museum would be

49 - 35 = 14

Answer:

60 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question using Lowest Common Factor method

Find and list multiples of each number of minutes( 12 and 10 minutes) until the first common multiple is found. This is the lowest common multiple.

Multiples of 10:

10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80

Multiples of 12:

12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84

Therefore,

LCM(10, 12) = 60

The number if minutes until they both drip again is 60 minutes
