Between them Molly and Sue have 32 marbles. Molly has 3 times as many as Sue. How many marbles does each girl have?
1 answer:
Answer:
Sue has 8 marbles
Molly has 8 marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
m = number of marbles Molly has
s = number of marbles that sue has
m+s =32
m = 3s
Substitute the second equation into the first equation
3s+s =32
4s = 32
Divide by 4
4s/4 =32/4
s = 8
Sue has 8 marbles
m = 32 = 3*8 = 24
Molly has 8 marbles
