Aicel,Bessy,Cynthia went to the farm to pick guavas. They picked 120 guavas in all. Aicel picked twice as many as Bessy did and
bessy picked 3 times as many as Cynthia did. How many guavas did each of them have?
1 answer:
Answer:
Cynthia = 12 guavas
Bessy = 36 guavas
Aicel = 72 guavas
Step-by-step explanation:
Total guavas = 120
Let
Cynthia = x
Bessy = 3x
Aicel = 2(3x)
= 6x
x + 3x + 6x = 120
10x = 120
x = 120/10
x = 12
Cynthia = x
= 12 guavas
Bessy = 3x
= 3(12)
= 36 guavas
Aicel = 6x
= 6 × 12
= 72 guavas
Total = 74 + 36 + 12
= 120 guavas

It is a good idea to check to see if your answer is reasonable because a. if your answer is reasonable, you have probably done the problem correctly.
H + c = 605
c = h + 55
h + h + 55 = 605
2h + 55 = 605
2h = 605 - 55
2h = 550
h = 550/2
h = 275 <== there were 275 hamburgers sold on Friday
c = h + 55
c = 275 + 55
C = 330...there were 330 cheeseburgers sold on Friday
