5 answers

10 c + 26 a = 740
but a = 50 - c
so

10 c + 26 (50 - c) = 740

-16 c + 1300 = 740

16 c = 560

c = 35
No of children = 50-x
No of adult = x
10x + 26[50-x] = 740
= 10x + 1300 - 26x = 740
10x - 26x + 1300 = 740
-16x + 1300 = 740
16x = 1300 - 740 = 560
16x = 560
x = 560/16 = 35
x = 35
No of children = 35
No of children = 50-x
No of adult = x
10x + 26[50-x] = 740
= 10x + 1300 - 26x = 740
10x - 26x + 1300 = 740
-16x + 1300 = 740
16x = 1300 - 740 = 560
16x = 560
x = 560/16 = 35
x = 35

No of children = 35
35 children
Nice 😊 but 2022 elle
