Answer:
the answer you are looking for is -11s
Jack has 212 marbles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jack and Watson have = 365 marbles
Jack and Asher have = 263 marbles
Let,
x be the marbles Jack have
y be the marbles Watson have
z be the marbles Asher have
According to given statement;
x+y=365 Eqn 1
x+z=263 Eqn 2
Watson has three times as many marbles is Asher.
y=3z Eqn 3
Putting y=3z in Eqn 1;
x+3z=365 Eqn 4
Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 4
Dividing both sides by 2
Putting z=51 in Eqn 2
Jack has 212 marbles.
