20 baby cammels

Explanation:

Answer 2

For every 6 adults there are 5 baby camels
total number of adults and baby camels = 44
baby camels = ?
let x is the total number of baby camels and y is the total number of adult camels and x + y = 44
for 6 adults 5 baby camels
for 12 adults 10 baby camels
and 18 adults have 15 baby camels
and for 24 adults it means there are 20 baby camels
so y if y = 24 and x = 20 the sum is equal to 44
20 + 24 = 44
i means there are 20 baby camels in the zoo.
