Question

Brice has twice as many stamps in his collection as his friends Anthony and Paul

Answer 1

Answer:

Anthony has 16 stamps.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to start off using the Equation 2(x + 32) = 96

Using the distributive property, distribute the  2.    2x + 64 = 96.

Then you would subtract 64 on both sides t get rid of 64.   2x = 32

To get x by itself you would divide 2 on each side. x= 16

16 Is how many stamps Anthony has and you can check this my adding Paul's stamps and multiplying by two, because Brice has twice the amount of them both combined.
