Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

children : adults : total

2                5           2+5 =7

We have 280 people

Divide this by 7

280/7 = 40

Multiply each number by 40

children : adults : total

2*40            5*40    7*40

80                 200        280

There are 80 children  and 200 adults
