Dear Student ,

Please find below the solution to the asked query :

Let the total number of children be x and children who are obese be y 
A T
Qy=20100×xy=x55y=x5y-x=0 , linear equation 
Now , when total number of children are 500 
then , x=5005y-500=05y=500y=100 
Number of children who are obese are 100
