Answer:

74 Labtops

Step-by-step explanation:

you first have to subtract 6 from 142

142-6= 136

divide 136 by two.... for the labtops and the computers.

136 ÷ 2 = 68

68 is the number of desktops...to find the number of labtops you just need to add 6 again.

68 + 6 = 74 Labtops

To check your answer you can just add

74+68 and if it equals to what you started with then that's your answer

74 + 68 = 142
