Answer:

20 children.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this using an equation or simple mental math:

The equation: x=children x+20=adults

x + (x+20) = 60

2x + 20 = 60

2x = 40

x = 20

Mental Math: 40 plus 20 is 60 and 40 is 20 more than 20 so there are 40 adults and 20 children.

Answer:

$- 23$

Step-by-step explanation:

$24 \div {2}^{2} ( - 3) - 7 - {2}^{2} - 2(3 - 6) \\ 24 \div {2}^{2} ( - 3) - 7 - {2}^{2} - 2( - 3) \\ 24 \div 4( - 3) - 7 - 4 - 2( - 3)\\ 6(-3) - 7 - 4 -2(- 3) \\ - 18 - 7 - 4 + 6 \\ -25 -4 +6 \\ -29 +6 \\ - 23$
