    Given =

    total people attented a rock festival = 10483

    number of boys more than girls in the rock festival = 811

    fewer adult over 50 year of age = 2481

    find out the each group attented the festival

    To proof =

    let us assume that the number of the girls be x.

    let us assume that the number of the boys be y.

    let us assume that the number of the adults be z.

    thus we have equation

    x + y + z = 10483

    number of boys (y) = x + 811

    number of adults (z) = x - 2481

    put these all value inthe equation x + y + z = 10483

    we get

    x + x + 811 + x - 2481 = 10483

    3x - 1670 = 10483

    3x = 12153

    x = 4051

    the number of girls are 4051

    the number of boys = 4051 + 811

    i. ethe number of boys are 4862

    the number of adults = 4051 - 2481

    i. e number of adults are 1570.

    Hence proved
