310There were 48 more windbreakers than jumpsuits at first. If another 48 jumpsuits were added at first, the number of jumpsuits and windbreakers would be the same.
10 u + 48 = 7 u + 87
10 u - 7 u = 87 - 48
3 u = 39
1 u = 39 ÷ 3 = 13
Number of jumpsuits in the shop at first
= 10 u
= 10 x 13
= 130
Answer(s): 130
