Warren and Marion share some beads.
78 of Warren's beads is equal to
713 of Marion's beads. Given that Warren has 25 beads less than Marion, how many beads do they have altogether?
78 of Warren's beads = 713 of Marion's beads
Number of Warren's beads = 8 u
Number of Marion's beads = 13 u
Number of beads that Warren has less than Marion
= 13 u - 8 u
= 5 u
5 u = 25
1 u = 25 ÷ 5 = 5
Total number of beads
= 8 u + 13 u
= 21 u
= 21 x 5
= 105
Answer(s): 105
