Ali, Ben, and Carla made a total of 20 sandwiches. Ben
1 answer:
Of the 20 sandwiches prepared by Ali, Ben and Carla, Ali made a total of A) two sandwiches
Information of the problem:
- Total of sandwiches: 20
- Ali = x
- Ben = 3x
- Carla = 2*(3x)
To solve this problem we have to state the equation using the information of the problem:
Total of sandwiches = Ali + Ben + Carla
20 = x + 3x + 2*(3x)
20 = x + 3x + 6x
20 = 10x
x = 20 / 10
x = 2
Substituting the (x) value into the information of the problem we get:
Ali = 2 sandwiches
Ben = 3*2 = 6 sandwiches
Carla = 2*(3*2) = 2*6 = 12 sandwiches
