The answer is C because if you substitute in X-6 for the y in the first equation (since X-6 is also equal to y), you get 2x=16 which means x=8. There is only one option where 8 is equal to X, but just to check you can substitute it back into either of the original equations to make sure that y=2.
Participants = 60
.
First round:
1/3 of 60 = 20
or
60 x 1/3
= 60/3
= 20
60 - 20 = 40
There are 20 participants that are eliminated on the first sound and 40 participants to move on to the second sound.
.
Participants = 40
Second round:
1/4 of 40 = 10
or
40 x 1/4
= 40/4
= 10
40 - 10 = 30
There are 10 participants that are eliminated on the second round and 30 participants that is moving on to the next round.
.
Participants = 30
Third round:
1/6 of 30 = 5
or
30 x 1/6
= 30/6
= 5
30 - 5 = 25
There are 5 participants that are eliminated on the third round and 25 participants to move on to the fourth round.
