Respuesta :

Answer:

The running club has 35 members

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the total members of the running club

we know that

The total members of the running club multiplied by 5/7 plus 6 must be equal to 31 people

so

[tex]\frac{5}{7}x+6=31[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]\frac{5}{7}x=31-6[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5}{7}x=25[/tex]

[tex]x=25(7)/5[/tex]

[tex]x=35\ members[/tex]

therefore

The running club has 35 members
