A train full of giraffes and rabbits goes to a resort. In every train car, there are either
25 giraffes or 45 rabbits. The total number of giraffes on the train is equal to the total
number of rabbits on the train. What is the least possible number of train Cars if there
are more than 500 animals on the train?


Sagot :

There are 11 trains containing giraffes and 7 trains containing rabbits.

Equation

An equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let x represent the number of train with giraffes and y represent the number of train with rabbits.

Hence:

25x = 40y

25x - 40y = 0    (1)

Also:

25x + 40y > 500   (2)

From both equations:

A possible solution is x = 11, y = 7

There are 11 trains containing giraffes and 7 trains containing rabbits.
