Mark and don are planning to sell each of their marble collections at a garage sale. if don has 4 more than 5 times the number o

natita [175]

Mark and Don have to sell 11 and 59 marbles respectively.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

Lets assume, the number of marbles Mark has is $x$

As, Don has 4 more than 5 times the number of marbles mark has, so the number of marbles Don has $= 5x+ 4$

Question says that the total number of marbles is 70. So, the equation will be...

$x+(5x+4)= 70\\ \\ 6x+4= 70 \\ \\ 6x = 70-4\\ \\ 6x=66 \\ \\ x= \frac{66}{6}= 11$

<em>So, the number of marbles Mark has = 11 </em>

<em>and the number of marbles Don has = $(5*11)+4 = 55+4= 59$ </em>
