The Robinson come from three states of the country. 6 of them come from Minnesota. The rest come from Texas and Florida. There are 5 more family members from Texas than from Florida .how many Robinson comes from each state?
To find out how many Robinson family members come from each state, we'll break down the information given step by step.
Let's assume the total number of Robinson family members from Minnesota is represented by "M," the number from Texas is represented by "T," and the number from Florida is represented by "F."
According to the information given:
1. Six Robinson family members come from Minnesota.
So, we have M = 6.
2. The rest of the Robinson family members come from Texas and Florida combined.
Let's represent this as: (T + F) = (Total Robinson family members) - (Robinson family members from Minnesota).
Therefore, (T + F) = Total Robinson family members - 6.
3. There are 5 more family members from Texas than from Florida.
So, we have T = F + 5.
By substituting the value of T in terms of F (from point 3) into the equation in point 2, we get:
(F + 5 + F) = Total Robinson family members - 6.
Simplifying the equation further:
2F + 5 = Total Robinson family members - 6.
To find the number of Robinson family members from each state, we need one more piece of information: the total number of Robinson family members. Without that, we cannot find the specific numbers. If you have the total number, please provide it, and I can help you solve the problem.
