Dylan and Kathy share some beads.
34 of Dylan's beads is equal to
310 of Kathy's beads. Given that Kathy has 24 beads more than Dylan, how many beads do they have altogether?
34 of Dylan's beads = 310 of Kathy's beads
Number of Dylan's beads = 4 u
Number of Kathy's beads = 10 u
Number of beads that Kathy has more than Dylan
= 10 u - 4 u
= 6 u
6 u = 24
1 u = 24 ÷ 6 = 4
Total number of beads
= 4 u + 10 u
= 14 u
= 14 x 4
= 56
Answer(s): 56
