There are 4,200 adults in Lakeview. Three-eighths of the adults in Lakeview do not have children. How many adults in Lakeview have children? Need to show work of how I reached the answer

Respuesta :

Assuming the adults that have children and the ones that don't together make up the entire population of adults, then the number that have children will be ...

... 4200 - (3/8)×4200

... = 4200×(1 -3/8) = 4200×5/8 = 2625

2625 adults in Lakeview have children
