Question

2/9 of the people on a restaurant are adults. If there are 95 more children than adults, how many children are there in the restaurant?

Answer 1

Answer: 133 children

Step-by-step explanation:

children = x

adults = y

2/9 (x+y) = y.....

7y - 2x = 0

y+95=x

7y - 2(y + 95) = 0

7y -2y -190 = 0

5y +190

y = 38

38+95 = x

x = 133 children

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

9/9 - 2/9=7/9

adults=7/9

children=2/9

difference between children and adults = 95 = 7/9 - 2/9 = 5/9

                                                                 so 95 = 5/9

if 5/9 = 95                  

  2/9 =                        2/9 x 95 ÷ 5/9 = 38      

answer = 38
