Answer:

10 children

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a ratio of 2:1 children:adults, then we can find out how many children max can enroll if there are 5 adults.

Our original ratio was 2:1 and now it's x:5, assuming x is the number of children enrolled. We multiply 1 by 5 to get to 5, so we need to multiply 2 by 5 to get the total number of chlidren.

2 × 5 = 10

Hope this helped!
