Question

There are 49 Dogs signed up to compete in the dog show. There are 36 more small dogs than large dogs signed up to compete. How many small dogs are signed up to compete?​

Answer 1

let the large dogs be x

then,small dogs=x+36

total dogs=x+x+36

x+x+36=49

2x=49

x=25( apporox)

so total dogs(small)=49-25

=24

Answer 2

Answer:

let the total number of large dogs be X.

X + 36 = 49

X = 13 large dogs.

total number of small dogs will be 36 - 13

= 23 small dogs.
