14% of the town's population is over the age of 65 if there are 320 residents over the age of 65 approximately what is the town's population of round to the nearest whole number

the town's population is 2286

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the town's population.

14% of the town's population is over the age of 65. It means that the number of people in the town who are over 65 years old is

14/100 × x = 0.14 × x = 0.14x

if there are 320 residents over the age of 65, it means that

0.14x = 320

Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.14, it becomes

0.14x/0.14x = 320/0.14

x = 2286 to the nearest whole number

x+y=90

x=30-y=x
