Answer :

Sure, let's solve this problem step by step:

1. Identify the total population of the city:
The total population is given as 500,000.

2. Identify the population of females and males:
The population of females is 130,600 and the population of males is 160,300.

3. Calculate the combined population of females and males:
Add the female population and the male population together:
[tex]\[ 130,600 + 160,300 = 290,900 \][/tex]

4. Calculate the number of children:
Subtract the combined population of females and males from the total population:
[tex]\[ 500,000 - 290,900 = 209,100 \][/tex]

Therefore, the number of children in the city is 209,100.
