Two brothers shared the coins in a piggy bank. Alan received 140 coins. When he gave 48 coins to his brother, the number of his
brothers coins increased by 40%. How many coins were there in the piggy bank?
1 answer:
Assume Alan's brother has x coins before Alan gave him 48 coins
x+48=1.4x (increased by 40%)
0.4x=48
x=120
120+140=260
answer is 260 coins
