How many Minimum Non Linear equations required to solve N variables in optimization problem?

I am using Genetic Algorithm to optimize the decision variables x(1),x(2),....x(N).
And I have less than N equations obtained from constraint function, With only one Objective.
Do we exactly need N non-linear equations? Or is it ok if we have less than N equations?

Imagine that N=3;
A=[1 1 4;2 4 5];b=[2;1];
fun=@(x) x(1).^2+2*x(2)-x(3).^3;
y=ga(fun,3,A,b)
As you can see, there is one objective function, with two constraints and three variables. It gives a result. Hope this helps.

Yes, it can but it will just take more time than usual. For instance for N=32, when I solve a problem for ga, the elapsed time is
>> Elapsed time is 73.111 seconds.
