What was the number of children and the number of adults who took the train ride that day, and which pair of equations can be solved to find the numbers?

A) 12 children and 28 adults

Equation 1: a + c = 40

Equation 2: 4a - c = 76

B) 12 children and 28 adults

Equation 1: a + c = 40

Equation 2: 4a + c = 76

C) 28 children and 12 adults

Equation 1: a + c = 40

Equation 2: 4a + c = 76

D) 28 children and 12 adults

Equation 1: a + c = 40
