Question

State aid and state B or among the states with the most remaining and drive in movie screens state a has six more screen stay in state be there are 48 screens total in the two states how many drive-in movie screens remain in each state

Answer 1

State A has 27 screens and state B has 21 screens.

Explanation:

Let the number of screens in state B be 'x'.

Given:

Number of screens in state A is 6 more than state B

Total number of screens = 48.

Now, as per question:

Number of screens in state A = 6 more than state B.

Framing in equation form, we get:

Number of screens in state A =
`6+x`

Now, total number of screens is the sum of the screens in state A and number of screens in state B. Therefore,

Total number of screens = 48

Number of screens in state A + Number of screens in state B = 48

Substituting the given values, we get:

`6+x+x=48\\\\6+2x=48\\\\2x=48-6\\\\2x=42\\\\x=(42)/(2)=21`

So, state B has 21 screens.

State A has = 6 + 21 = 27 screens.

Therefore, state A has 27 screens and state B has 21 screens.
