Roshel has 2 times as many beads as Xandra. Xandra has
47 as many beads as Lynn. If the three of them have a total of 114 beads, how many beads does Roshel have?
Roshel |
Xandra |
Lynn |
2x4 |
1x4 |
|
|
4x1 |
7x1 |
8 u |
4 u |
7 u |
The number of beads that Xandra has is repeated. Make the number of beads that Xandra has the same. LCM of 1 and 4 is 4.
Total number of beads that the three of them have
= 8 u + 4 u + 7 u
= 19 u
19 u = 114
1 u = 114 ÷ 19 = 6
Number of beads that Roshel has
= 8 u
= 8 x 6
= 48
Answer(s): 48
