Jax and Sofia collect baseball cards. Jax has 56 cards and Sofia has 68. They each joined different baseball-collecting clubs. E
ach month, Jax's club will send him 4 new packages of cards. Sofia's club will send her 3 new packages per month. If each pack has 4 cards in it, after how many months will Jax and Sofia have the same number of cards? How many will they have?
Jax gets 4 packs per month...each pack contains 4 cards...so he gets 16 cards per month. Sofia gets 3 packs per month..each pack contains 4 cards...so she gets 12 cards per month..
56 + 16m = 68 + 12m 16m - 12m = 68 - 56 4m = 12 m = 12/4 m = 3.....they will have the same number of cards in 3 months
