why tanks and APC’s exist separately? Why not make a tank that can carry a lot of soldiers?

I guess what I’m asking is what are the different functions of the two types of vehicles? Why can’t militaries combine them?

A tank that can also carry people would need to be bigger than a tank that can’t carry people. A larger vehicle means it’ll both be slower and easier for enemy weapons to hit, both are bad things in a battlefield.

Because of that some vehicles are designed to carry people and other vehicles designed to carry a big gun and lots of ammo, that way they can both be smaller and focus on fighting or moving people safely depending on what they’re best at doing.
