Help me out to get this math problem solve

1. 1900 children.

2. 600 adults.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number children.

Let a represent the number of adult.

From the question given above, we were told that 2500 people entered the fair. This can be obtained as follow:

2500 = c + a (1)

From the question given above, we were told that:

Cost per child = $ 2

Cost per adult = $ 4

Total amount collected = $ 6200

Thus, we can write the above as:

6200 = 2c + 4a (2)

Summary:

2500 = c + a (1)

6200 = 2c + 4a (2)

1. Determination of the number of children that attended the fair.

From equation 1

2500 = c + a

Make a the subject by rearranging

a = 2500 – c (3)

Substitute the value of 'a' in equation 3 into equation 2

6200 = 2c + 4a

a = 2500 – c

6200 = 2c + 4(2500 – c)

Clear bracket

6200 = 2c + 10000 – 4c

Collect like terms

6200 – 10000 = 2c – 4c

–3800 = –2c

Divide both side by –2

c = –3800 / –2

c = 1900

Thus, 1900 children attended the fair

2. Determination of the number of adults that attended the fair.

Substitute the value of c into equation 3.

a = 2500 – c

c = 1900

a = 2500 – 1900

a = 600

Thus, 600 adults attended the fair.

55% are girls and 45% are boys : ) hope this
