Answer:
31 children and 290 adults
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a = number of adults and c = number of children.
a + c = 321
2a + 1.75c = 634.25
Multiply both sides of the the first equation by -2 and add it to the second equation.
-2a - 2c = -642
(+) 2a + 1.75c = 634.25
--------------------------------------
-0.25c = -7.75
Divide both sides by -0.25
c = 31
Use the first equation to find a.
a + c = 321
Substitute 31 for c.
a + 31 = 321
Subtract 31 from both sides.
a = 290
Answer: 31 children and 290 adults
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
4/8 are red. If you simplify that you get 1/2.
The greatest common factor of 42 and 72 is 6.
6 times 7 is 42. 6 times 12 is 72. There is no greater factor for both numbers except for 6.
Hope this helps!
