x+12 x

x+12+x=78

2x+12=78

2x=66

x=33

year book= 33

drama= 45

Answer 2

Answer: 45

Explanation:

Let's call the number of students in the yearbook club "x". Since the drama club has 12 more students, the number of students in the drama club would be "x+12".

We know that the total number of students in both clubs is 78, so we can set up an equation:

x + (x+12) = 78

Simplifying the equation:

2x + 12 = 78

Subtracting 12 from both sides:

2x = 66

Dividing both sides by 2:

x = 33

So there are 33 students in the yearbook club.

To find the number of students in the drama club, we can substitute x = 33 into the equation we set up earlier:

x + 12 = 33 + 12 = 45

Therefore, there are 45 students in the drama club.
