Question

Missy has 4 times as many trading cards as her friends Ashe and Caleb combined. Ashe

Answer 1

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

Missy has 156 cards in total. Since we know she has 4 times as many as them, we divide 156 by 4

156/4= 39

Ashe has 17 cards and we still don't know how many Caleb has. Since we know that they have 39 cards together, we need to subtract Ashe's cards to find how many Caleb has

39-17=22

Let's check our work

Caleb has 22 cards

Ashe has 17 cards

Together they have 39

Which is 4 times less than how many cards Missy has

Missy has 156 cards

We are correct!
