The aquarium has 3 more yellow fish than green fish. 60 percent of the fish are yellow. how many green fish are in the aquarium? show your work.

For this case we propose a system of equations:

x: Be the variable that represents green fish

y: Be the variable that represents the yellow fish.

According to the data we have:

We match the equations:

So, there are 6 green fish

6

There are 6 green fish in the aquarium.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "g" the number of green fish in the aquarium and "y" the number of yellow fish in the aquarium.

You can set up a system of equations:

Solve for "g" from the first equation and substitute this into the second equation and solve for "y":

Finally, substitute into , then:

step-by-step explanation:

no of data

divide by no of mode

x> 6

step-by-step explanation:

8x+8> 7x+14

8x-7x> 14-8

x> 6
