Xylia and Sarah folded paper stars over two days. On Wednesday, Xylia folded 60 paper stars more than Sarah. On Thursday, Xylia folded another 34 paper stars and Sarah folded another 34. At the end of the two days, Xylia made ⁷₁₀ of the total number of stars. What was the number of paper stars that Xylia folded?

	Xylia	Sarah	Difference
Before	1 u + 60	1 u	60
Change	+ 34	+ 34
After	1 u + 94	1 u + 34	60
Comparing between Xylia and Sarah in the end	7 p	3 p	4 p

Difference between the number of paper stars that Xylia and Sarah folded in the end is repeated.

Difference between the number of paper stars that Xylia and Sarah folded in the end
= 7 p - 3 p
= 4 p

Difference between the number of paper stars that Xylia and Sarah folded in the end
= (1 u + 94) - (1 u + 34)
= 1 u + 94 - 1 u - 34
= 94 - 34
= 60

4 p = 60

1 p = 60 ÷ 4 = 15

Number of paper stars that Xylia folded
= 7 p
= 7 x 15
= 105

Answer(s): 105
