    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
