Answer 1

Let's assume

total number of tourists is x

now, we can find percentage of children

$children=100-female-male$

$children=100-35-45$

$children=20$

so,

20% of tourists is children

so, we get

$\frac{20}{100} *x=14$

now, we can solve for x

$x=14*5$

$x=70$

so,

total number of tourists is 70.........Answer
