Answer:
wow
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Name the variables:
A: number of model cars Andre has
P: number of model cars Peter has
J: number of model cars Jade has.
2) Statements:
<span>Andre
has 4 times as many model cars as Peter: A = 4 P
Peter has one-third as
many model cars as Jade: P = J / 3
Andre has 36 model cars: A = 36
3) Write and solve an
equation to find how many model cars Peter has.
A = 4P => A/4 = P
=> P = A / 4
=> P = 36 / 4 = 8
4) Using your answer from
part a, write and solve an equation to find how many model cars Jade has.
P = J / 3 => J = 3P
=> J = 3 (8) = 24
