Sure, let's break down the problem step by step to determine the number of children living in the city.
1. Determine the total population:
The total population of the city is 3,456,555.
2. Determine the number of adult males:
The number of adult males in the city is 1,555,350.
3. Determine the number of adult females:
The number of adult females in the city is 1,225,555.
4. Calculate the total number of adults:
To find the total number of adults in the city, we add the number of adult males and the number of adult females.
[tex]\[
\text{Total number of adults} = \text{Adult males} + \text{Adult females}
\][/tex]
By substituting the given values:
[tex]\[
\text{Total number of adults} = 1,555,350 + 1,225,555
\][/tex]
[tex]\[
\text{Total number of adults} = 2,780,905
\][/tex]
5. Calculate the number of children:
To find the number of children, we subtract the total number of adults from the total population.
[tex]\[
\text{Number of children} = \text{Total population} - \text{Total number of adults}
\][/tex]
By substituting the previously calculated values:
[tex]\[
\text{Number of children} = 3,456,555 - 2,780,905
\][/tex]
[tex]\[
\text{Number of children} = 675,650
\][/tex]
Therefore, the number of children living in the city is 675,650.
