Question

There are 35 people in a room. There are

Answer 1

Answer: 14 females

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of males = x +7

Let number of females = x

Set up the equation:

x + x + 7 = 35

2x + 7 = 35

2x = 28

x = 14

There are 14 females.

Answer 2

Answer:

Male=21 Female=14

Step-by-step explanation:

So the problem would be (f)+(f+7)=35

first you would subtract 7 from 35

Now you have (f)+(f)=28 or 2f=28

Then you divide both sides by two

f=14

and since we know there is 7 more males then the answer is

m=21
