Question

Adriana has a stamp collection of 4 cent stamps and 6 cent stamps. She has 6 less 6cent stamps as 4 cent stamps. If the collection has a face value of 114 cents, how many of each does she have?

Answer 1

If she has 6 more 4 sent stamps that takes off 24 cents from the total of 114 which equals 90. 6x9=54 4x9=36

54+36=90 9+4=13. So you have 9, 6 cent stamps & 13, 4 sent stamps
