Solution:
Part: 1
Let the number of stamps with Carson = x and Eduardo = y


So, equation as per given information:


y = x + 16  -- equation 1
1/2x = 1/4y  --equation 2

Through equation 1, we get value of y as x+16

Putting this value of y in equation 2,
1/2x = 1/4 (x+16)

4x = 2(x+16)
4x = 2x+32

By solving, we get x = 16

So, Carson has 16 stamps. And, Eduardo has 16 stamps more than Carson which means Eduardo has 16+16 stamps which gives 32 stamps.

Carson = 16 stamps
Eduardo = 32 stamps.

Part: 2

After giving some stamps, Eduardo has 3/8 of Carson's stamp

3/8 of 16 stamps = 6 stamps

So Eduardo now has 6 stamps.

Initially Eduardo had 32 stamps and he now have 6 stamps. So, 32-6 = 26 stamps have been  given by Eduardo.

Answer: Eduardo gave 26 stamps.

Ulleksa [173]
America went through a tough time during this age. The government was very corrupt and authority could easily be bribed. This is why court cases against these things could not easily be won, because of the corruption.
