The total population comprising of men, women and children of a town is $270497$. If the number of the men is $68795$ and that of the women is $68005$. Find the number of the children in the town.

Answer 1

Find the number of children in the town

We have:

The total population of a town is $270497$

Number of the men $=68795$

Number of the women $=68005$

First, add the number of men and number of women

$68795+68005136800$

Now, subtract total number of men and women from the total population then we will get the number of children from the town.

$270497-136800133697$

Hence, the number of children in the town $=133697$.
