Answer:
Linda makes 72 more cards than Paul
during the week
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to know how many cards Linda makes than Paul during the week.
We proceed as follows;
From the question;
If Paul makes 1 card, then Linda has made three
Now let’s get their relationship with Aaron;
If Aaron makes 2 cards , Linda has made three
Now since Aaron made 72 cards, Let’s say Linda has made x cards
Let’s get the value of x now
To get the value of x, we simply cross multiply;
2 - 3
72 - x
2 * x = 3 * 72
x = (3 * 72)/2 = 108 cards
Now recall , for every 3 cards of Linda, Paul made only 1;
So the number of cards Paul will make if Linda makes 108 will be 108/3 = 36
So the number of more cards that Linda makes than Paul during the week will be ; 108 -36 = 72 cards
