310There were 46 more blazers than jumpsuits at first. If another 46 jumpsuits were added at first, the number of jumpsuits and blazers would be the same.
10 u + 46 = 7 u + 79
10 u - 7 u = 79 - 46
3 u = 33
1 u = 33 ÷ 3 = 11
Number of jumpsuits in the shop at first
= 10 u
= 10 x 11
= 110
Answer(s): 110
