Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s represent the number of stickers Sophia has. Then the number Ethan has is (2/3)s. The transfer of 16 stickers can be described by the equation ...
(s -16)/(2/3s +16) = 1/2 . . . . . sophia/ethan = 1/2 after the transfer
2s -32 = 2/3s +16 . . . . . . . . .cross multiply
4/3s = 48 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 32-2/3s
s = (48)(3/4) = 36 . . . . . . . . .multiply by 3/4
Together, the total number of stickers held is s +(2/3)s = (5/3)s.
5/3s = (5/3)(36) = 60 . . . . . total of Sophia's and Ethan's stickers
Together, Sophia and Ethan have 60 stickers.
