Question: A church has 120 members. 40% are adults. The rest are children. How many children more children are there than adults? Think carefully first, then make a decision:
There are 48 adults because 120 x .4 = 48. 60% of members are children because 100 - 40 = 60. There are 72 children because 120 x .6 = 72. There are 24 more children than adults because 72 - 48 = 24. So the answer is 24.
