A bag contains purple marbles and white marbles, 104 in total. The number of purple marbles is 2 more than 5 times the number of
white marbles. How many purple marbles are there?
1 answer:
Let white marbles = x
Purple marbles = 5x + 2
Given:
x + 5x + 2 = 104
6x = 102
x = 17
Purple marbles = 5(17) + 2 = 85 + 2 = 87
