bbc:
Assume 10 $2 and 10 $5Hi,
Pls help with the following. thanks.
Lily had $61 in two-dollar notes and five-dollar notes.
She had 20 notes altogether.
She used all her five-dollar notes to buy a bag.
How much did the bag cost?
20 + 50 = 70
Too much, need to reduce $9
If we reduce 1 x $5 = -$5
But $2 will increase by 1 = +$2
The result is $3 reduce.
So we need to reduct 3 x $5 ; which means 13 $2 and 7 $5
26 + 35 = 61 correct
Bag cost $35 -
bbc:
At first :Robin has 4 times as many marbles as Sam.
After Sam buys another 105 marbles, he has twice as many marbles as Robin. How many marbles does Robin have?
R:UUUU
S:U
Then S buy 105 ie. (U+105)
R:UUUU
S:UUUUUUUU
So
8U = U + 105
7U = 105
U = 15
R = 4U = 60 -
bbc:
Jeric had 45 marbles more than Mark. After Jeric lost 75 marbles, Mark had thrice as many marbles as what Jeric had left. How many marbles did Jeric have at first?
In the end :
M:UUU
J:U
at first (j not yet lost 75)
M:UUU
J:U +75 = 45 more than Mark = UUU + 45
U+75 = UUU + 45
2U = 30
U = 15
At first J have U+75 = 15 + 75 = 90
Mark have 3U = 3 x 15 = 45
Check J lost 75 = 15 ; Mark have 3 times more = 45. correct -
Thanks, PapayaDad.
