Answer 1

Answer:

1st answer is in the pic

2nd answer is that there are

1650 childs and 550 adults

Step-by-step explanation: the picture

If you want the 1st answer in words, it is here

Correct result:

a =  100

c =  800

t =  300

Solution:

6a + 5t + 4c = 5300

a + t + c = 1200

(8/3)t = c

6•a + 5•t + 4•c = 5300

a + t + c = 1200

(8/3)•t = c

6a+4c+5t = 5300

a+c+t = 1200

3c-8t = 0

a = 100

c = 800

t = 300
