The teacher separated her class of twenty-eight students into two groups. One group has 4 more than twice as many students as the other group. How many students are in each group?

Sagot :

4+2x = x (x = student in smaller group)

4 + 2x + x = 28 (total # of students)
4+ 3x = 28
3x = 24
x = 8
8 students in the smaller group 
4 + 2(8) = 20 students in the larger group
