Question

Two classes have a total of 50,students. One of the classes has 6 more students than the other. How many students are in the larger class.

Answer 1

I think the answer to your question is 28

Answer 2

X + y = 50 .......(1) 

x = y + 6 .........(2) 

So, y + 6 + y = 50 => 2y = 44 => y = 22 
x = 50 - 22 = 28 

larger class = 28
