Yesterday, Rael had 55 tarts and 24 puffs. This morning, he sold 29 tarts and bought some more puffs. Now he has five times as many puffs as tarts. How many puffs did he buy today?
|
Tarts |
Puffs |
Before |
55 |
24 |
Change |
- 29 |
+ ? |
After |
1 u |
5 u |
Number of tarts in the end
= 55 - 29
= 26
1 u = 26
Number of puffs in the end
= 5 u
= 5 x 26
= 130
Number of puffs that Rael bought today
= 5 u - 24
= 130 - 24
= 106
