Answer:

2 bicycles

Step-by-step explanation:

  • let no. of bicycles be x
  • no.of tricycles = (6 -x)

as there were 5 bicycles and tricycles

now,

  • a bicycle has 2 wheels
  • a tricycle has 3 wheels

total no.of wheels = 16

2x + 3(6 - x) = 16

2x + 18 - 3x= 16

2 - x = 0

2 = x

therefore, there are 2 bicycles.
