Answer:

15 teachers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

number of children is c

number of teachers is t

[tex]\frac{c}{t}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{14}{3}[/tex] (rearrange)

t = [tex]\frac{3}{14}[/tex] x C

When C = 70,

t = [tex]\frac{3}{14}[/tex] x 70

t = 15 teachers

Answer:

[tex] \frac{c}{t } = \frac{14}{3} [/tex]

as c=70 so put value of c in above formula we get

[tex] \frac{70}{t} = \frac{14}{3} [/tex]

by cross multiplication

[tex]70 \times 3 = 14t[/tex]

[tex]210 = 14t[/tex]

[tex] \frac{210}{14} = t[/tex]

t=15

i hope u will understand
