Riordan and Jane share some cards.
611 of Riordan's cards is equal to
613 of Jane's cards. Given that Riordan has 16 cards less than Jane, how many cards do they have altogether?
611 of Riordan's cards = 613 of Jane's cards
Number of Riordan's cards = 11 u
Number of Jane's cards = 13 u
Number of cards that Riordan has less than Jane
= 13 u - 11 u
= 2 u
2 u = 16
1 u = 16 ÷ 2 = 8
Total number of cards
= 11 u + 13 u
= 24 u
= 24 x 8
= 192
Answer(s): 192
