Answer» Answer: group 1 = 50 students group 2 = 70 students Step-by-step explanation: We KNOW that 5x + 7x = 120 (because 5 and 7 have a common factor as x) (both of them ADD up to 120) = 12 x = 120 = x = 120 /12 = x = 10 The common factor is 10 so, number of students in each group group 1 = 5 x 10 = 50 students group 2 = 70 x 10 = 70 students finally, we GET 50 ; 70 students hope this helps u mark this as the brainliest |
