415Make the denominators the same.
25 =
615 Number of puffs that Raeann sold in the morning = 6 u
Number of puffs that Raeann sold in the evening = 4 u
Number of more puffs that Raeann sold in the morning than in the evening
= 6 u - 4 u
= 2 u
2 u = 10
1 u = 10 ÷ 2 = 5
Total number of puffs that Raeann made
= 15 u
= 15 x 5
= 75
Answer(s): 75
