Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
when solving and equation with a variable, you must work backwards and do the opposite of the equation
sooo… you must subtract 4 (opposite of +4 is -4)
x=12
Number of apples in pounds picked up by Keira = K
Number of apples in pounds picked up by Larry = L
Number of apples in pounds picked up by Gita = G
Total number of apples they picked all together in pounds = 8360
Now from the given question, we know
Number of apples picked up by Kiera = 2L
So
K = 2L
L = K/2
Again Kiera picked up 3 times as many apples as Gita picked.
So,
K = 3G
G = K/3
Now if we add all the apples in pounds picked up by the three of them.
Then
K + L + G = 8360
K + (K/2) + K/3) = 8360
(6K + 3K + 2K)/6 = 8360
11K/6 = 8360
11K = 8360 * 6
11K = 50160
K = 4560
Then
L = K/2
= 4560/2
= 2280
G = K/3
= 4560/3
= 1520
Now we can say that
Kiera picked 4560 pounds of apple
Larry picked 2280 pounds of apple
Gita picked 1520 pounds of apple
The answer is Inductive Reasoning
