3c+10a=201 a+c=25, a=25-c, using this value of a in the original equation gives us: 3c+10(25-c)=201 perform indicated multiplication on left side 3c+250-10c=201 group like terms on the left side -7c+250=201 subtract 250 from both sides -7c=-49 divide both sides by -7 c=7 So seven children were in the group.
