Since we given the information that Jordan is preparing serving of baby carrots and that he has 96 baby carrots, while each serving is 12 carats.
The number of shearings that Jordan can prepare will be:
= 96 / 12
= 8
From the above calculation, there won't be any carrots left since we do not have a remainder.
Answer:
The answer to your question is Katie had 15 rocks and Oliver 45 rocks.
Step-by-step explanation:
Conditions
Katie has x amount of rocks
Oliver has 3x amount of rocks
The final amount of rocks
Oliver = 3x + 75
Katie = x + 105
Now, they have the same amount of rocks, then we can equal both equations
3x + 75 = x + 105
Solve for x
3x - x = 105 - 75
2x = 30
x = 30/2
x = 15
Conclusions
At first Katie had 15 rocks and Oliver had 3(15) = 45 rocks
