For every 6 sweets that Dana has, Irene has 3 more sweets than her. They have 60 sweets altogether. How many sweets does Irene have?
Number of sweets that Irene has in 1 set
= 6 + 3
= 9
Total number of sweets in 1 set
= 9 + 6
= 15
Number of sets
= 60 ÷ 15
= 4
Number of sweets that Irene has
= 4 x 9
= 36
