Step2247 [10]

Answer:

There are 7 chairs in each row.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hue is arranging some number of chairs. If she arranges them in 6 rows of equal lengths then there will be 3 chairs leftover, or she arranges them in 8 rows of that same length then she requires 11 more chairs.

Let us assume that there are P numbers of chairs and there are x chairs in each row.

Therefore, we can write that

6x + 3 = P ....... (1) and

8x = P + 11

⇒ 8x - 11 = P ........ (2)

Now, from equations (1) and (2) we get,

6x + 3 = 8x - 11

⇒ 2x = 14

⇒ x = 7

Therefore, there are 7 chairs in each row. (Answer)
