Fiona had
58 as many mini cupcakes as Glen. Glen had
34 as many mini cupcakes as Fabian. If Fabian had 102 more mini cupcakes than Fiona, find the total number of mini cupcakes that was shared among these 3 children at first.
Fiona |
Glen |
Fabian |
5x3 |
8x3 |
|
|
3x8 |
4x8 |
15 u |
24 u |
32 u |
Glen is the repeated identity.
LCM of 8 and 3 = 24
Number of more mini cupcakes that Fabian had more than Fiona
= 32 u - 15 u
= 17 u
17 u = 102
1 u = 102 ÷ 17 = 6
Total number of mini cupcakes
= 15 u + 24 u + 32 u
= 71 u
= 71 x 6
= 426
Answer(s): 426
