Question

During a football match at the Luzuki Stadium , there was a total of 9500 spectators including men, women and children . If 6375 of them were men and there was 4 times as many children than women, calculate the number of children who were at the match

Answer 1

2500

Explanation:

Total spectator 9500

Men 6375

Women and children = 9500-6375= 3125

Women X

Children 4X

If women and children = 3125

4x + X = 3125

5x = 3125

Divide both sides by 5

X = 625

Women 625

Children 625x4 = 2500
