Answer:14 children are expected to be at the museum
Explanation:
Let x represent the total number of adult and children in the museum.
Ratio of adults to children at a museum is usually 5:2. The total ratio would be the sum of the proportions of adults and children. It becomes
5 + 2 = 7
There are currently 35 adults at the museum. It means that
5/7 × x = 35
5x/7 = 35
5x = 7 × 35 = 245
x = 245/5 = 49
The total number of adults and children in the museum is 49
The number of children in the museum would be
49 - 35 = 14
