First we need to set up some equations (J is the books Jim has, C is the books Charles has and B is the books Bob has)
J=3C
C=2/3(B)

Then we just plug in the numbers to find the answer
C=2/3(27)
C=18

J=3(18)
J=54

Jim has 54 comic books

First divide 27 by denominator which is 3 which then gives you 9 then you multiply it by the numerator 2 which gives you 18, then you multiply that by 3 which gives you 54

andreev551 [17]
<span>The simple interest formula is:

A = P · (1 + r · t)
where:
A = total amount
P = principal
r = rate
t = time 

Let's solve for r:
A = P + P · r · t
P · r · t = A - P

r = (A - P) / (P · t)

The quantity A - P is defined as the Interest, therefore:
r = I / (P <span>· t)
  = 1020 / (8500 </span>· 4)
  = 0.03

Therefore the rate was 3%.
