Given that, Nathan shares out 12 sweets, if he gives Yasmin 1 sweet for 3 sweets he buys, Nathan will get 9 sweets.
<h3>How many sweets does Nathan gets?</h3>
Given that, Nathan shares out 12 sweets, he gives Yasmin 1 sweet for 3 sweets he buys.
Let the sweet be represented by x
For each x sweet for Yasmin, Nathan gets 3x sweets
Hence
x + 3x = 12
We solve for x
4x = 12
x = 12/4
x = 3
Hence;
Yasmin gets x sweet = 3
Nathan gets 3x sweets = 3 × 3 = 9
Given that, Nathan shares out 12 sweets, if he gives Yasmin 1 sweet for 3 sweets he buys, Nathan will get 9 sweets.
