Answer:
260 stickers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Gareth's stickers be x.
Hence Cheryl sticker is 160+x;
If Cheryl gave 185 stickers
to Gareth, it means:
Cheryl has at the moment;
160 + x - 185 = x - 25
At this time when Gareth receives 185 he now has:
x+ 185
Also when he receives x +185, he has 3 times Cherry's meaning:
x+185 =3(x-25)
x + 185 = 3x -75
185 + 75 = 3x-2x
260= x
x = 260.
Hence Gareth has 260 stickers

The solution to these equations is either x < 0 or x > 3.
In order to find them, we need to solve each equation separately. Let's start with the first one.
2x - 1 < -1 -----> Add 1 to both sides
2x < 0 -----> Now divide each side by 2.
x < 0
Now let's look at the second one.
-4x < -12 ----> Divide both sides by -4
x > 3 (Notice that the sign changes direction because we divided by a negative)
When you have an "or" statement, you'll wind up with two answers, so we use both of these.
