While on a plane, Charlie counted the number of adults, children, and empty seats. 1/5 of the seats were occupied by children. 3/4 of the seats were occupied by adults.
10 seats were empty .

A. How many passenger seats were on the plane
B. Write how you figured it out

200 seats

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s = numbers of seats

1/5s = children

3/4 s = adults

10 = empty

The total number of seats = children + adults + empty

s = 1/5s + 3/4s + 10

Subtract 1/5s and 3/4s from each side

s -1/5s -3/4s= 1/5s-1/5s + 3/4s-3/4s + 10

s - 1/5s - 3/4s = 10

Get a common denominator

20s/20 - 4s/20 -15s/20 = 10

Combine like terms

1s/20 = 10

Multiply each side by 20

s/20 *20 = 20*10

s = 200

19 seats

Step-by-step explanation:

you take the denominators: 5,4, and 9

then you add them to get 19.
