Answer:

390,211 adults lives in the city

Explanation:

Simple equation

since 538,381 were the total amount of both children and adults then 148,170 was the amount of children in the population therefore we will write our equation like this in order to find adults

➟ TP - TC = TA

where,

  • TP means total population
  • TC means total population
  • TA means total adults

➟ 538,381 - 148,170 = TA

Calculate

➟ TA = 390,211

∴ 390,211 adults lives in the city
