So there are 20 eggs total.
If Kyla/Kyle found 1/2 the eggs then she/he found 20/2 = 10 eggs
If Kevin found 1/4 of the eggs then he found 20/4 = 5 eggs
Add the two totals 10+5=15
So 15 out of the 20 were found leaving 5 left to find because 20-15=5

Hope this helps!

Three brothers Charlie Robert and Nicholas have 21 video games Charlie has twice as many games as Robert. Robert has 5 fewer gam
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

The equation would be 4x-15=21.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Total Number of Video games = 21

Let the number of video game Nicholas has be 'x'.

Now Given:

Robert has 5 fewer games than Nicholas.

so we can say that;

number of video game Robert has = x-5

Also Given:

Charlie has twice as many games as Robert.

so we can say that;

number of video game Charlie has = 2(x-5)=2x-10

we need to write the equation.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

Total Number of Video games is equal to sum of number of video game Nicholas has, number of video game Robert has and number of video game Charlie has.

framing the equation we get;

x+x-5+2x-10=21\\\\4x-15=21

Hence The equation would be 4x-15=21.

On Solving we get;

Adding both side by 15 we get;

4x-15+15=21+15\\\\4x=36

Dividing both side by 4 we get;

\frac{3x}{4}=\frac{36}{4}\\\\x=9

Hence Nicholas has = 9 video games

Robert has = x-5= 9-5=4 video games

Charlie has = 2x-10 = 2\times9-10=18-10=8 video games
