Given, the ratio of blocks A, B, C,D are in the ratio 4:7:3:1
Let us consider the common ratio to be ‘x’.
So, toy blocks with alphabet A is 4x and
toy blocks with alphabet B is 7x and
toy blocks with alphabet C is 3x and
toy blocks with alphabet D is x
Again, the number of ‘A’ blocks is 50 more than the number of ‘C’ blocks.
As no. of ‘A’ and ‘C’ blocks are 4x and 3x respectively.
So,
4x=50 + 3x
x=50
Thus, the number of ‘B’ blocks is 7x = 7(50) = 350
350 is the required number.
First step is expand by using distributive property
<span>2(x + 7) + 3x = 12
step 1:
2x + 14 + 3x = 12</span>
you can estimate 57.8 and 81 then to check you can do 57.8 divided by 81
