Zoe has 4 times as many beads as Ivory. Ivory has
25 as many beads as Raeann. If the three of them have a total of 135 beads, how many beads does Raeann have?
| Zoe |
Ivory |
Raeann |
| 4x2 |
1x2 |
|
| |
2x1 |
5x1 |
| 8 u |
2 u |
5 u |
The number of beads that Ivory has is repeated. Make the number of beads that Ivory has the same. LCM of 1 and 2 is 2.
Total number of beads that the three of them have
= 8 u + 2 u + 5 u
= 15 u
15 u = 135
1 u = 135 ÷ 15 = 9
Number of beads that Raeann has
= 5 u
= 5 x 9
= 45
Answer(s): 45
