<span>According to astronomers a light year riddle is the distance traveled by light moving in a vacuum in the course of one year</span>
The answer is <span>She went over by one over six of a cup
</span>
<span>1 cup of that particular chocolate powder has a mass of 128 grams: 1c = 128g
</span><span>64 grams of chocolate powder is x cups.
1c = 128g
x = 64g
1c : 128 g = x : 64g
x = </span>1c : 128 g * 64 g
x = 0.5 c
64 grams of chocolate powder is 0.5 cups = 1/2 cups
<span>She added two over three of a cup of chocolate powder: 2/3 cups
She need to add 1/2 cups: 1/2 = 3/6 cups
She added 2/3 cups: 2/3 = 4/6 cups
So she added 4/6 - 3/6 = 1/6 cups more.

Answer:
<em>Beck actually caught 45 fish</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>System of Equations</u>
We call the following variables:
x = number of fish Ally caught
y = number of fish Beck caught
They caught a total of 75 fish, thus:
x + y = 75 [1]
If Ally had caught twice as much fish as she actually did, and Beck had caught three times as many fish as he actually did, then Ally would have caught 75 fewer fish than Beck, thus:
3y = 2x + 75 [2]
From [1]:
x = 75 - y [3]
Substituting in [2]:
3y = 2(75 - y) + 75
Operating:
3y = 150 - 2y + 75
Simplifying:
5y = 225
Dividing by 5:
y = 45
Beck actually caught 45 fish
