Answer

13,310\text{13,310}

Step-by-step solution

2 steps
  1. Calculate the total number of adults in the town.

    The number of men is 2,560 and the number of women is 2,250.

    Total adults=Number of men+Number of women\text{Total adults} = \text{Number of men} + \text{Number of women} Total adults=2,560+2,250\text{Total adults} = 2,560 + 2,250 Total adults=4,810\text{Total adults} = 4,810
  2. Calculate the number of children.

    The total number of adults and children in the town is 18,120.

    Number of children=Total population−Total adults\text{Number of children} = \text{Total population} - \text{Total adults} Number of children=18,120−4,810\text{Number of children} = 18,120 - 4,810 Number of children=13,310\text{Number of children} = 13,310

    The number of children in the town is 13,310\text{13,310}.
