Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

Drew has 4 times as many baseball cards as Mark. Katie has 3 fewer than than half as many cards  as Mark. In all they have 162 baseball cards. How many does each have?

Solution -

Let the number of cards with Mark be "X"

Number of cards with Drew = 4 *X = 4X

Number of Cards with Katies = 0.5 X -3

Sum of all the cards is equal to 162

X+4X + 0.5 X -3 = 162

5.5 X = 165

X = 30

Cards with Mark = 30

Cards with Drew = 4 * 30 = 120

Cards with Katei = 15-3 = 12
