There are a total of 94 students in a drama club and a yearbook club. The drama club has 10 more students than the yearbook club. How many students are in the drama club? the yearbook club?
There are 94 students total, split into 2 clubs. Let the number of students in drama club be D, and the number of students in yearbook club be Y. We know that D+Y=94 We also know that drama club has 10 more students, so D=Y+10 So D-Y=10 Add both equations together: (D+Y) + (D-Y) = 94+10 So 2D = 104 D = 52 So there's 52 in drama club. 94 total, so Y = 94-52 Y= 42 (42 is also 52-10) So there's 42 in yearbook club.
