A Spanish class has a total of
46
students. The number of females is
14
less than the number of males. How many males and how many females are in the class?

Answer 1

f + f + 14 = 46

2f = 32

f = 16

Answer 2

males=x
females=x-14
x+x-14=46
2x-14=46
you take 14 to the other side
46+14=60
2x=60
x=60/2=30
males=30
females=30-14=16
