Emily has 2 times as many stickers as Nora. Nora has
58 as many stickers as Olivia. If the three of them have a total of 253 stickers, how many stickers does Emily have?
Emily |
Nora |
Olivia |
2x5 |
1x5 |
|
|
5x1 |
8x1 |
10 u |
5 u |
8 u |
The number of stickers that Nora has is repeated. Make the number of stickers that Nora has the same. LCM of 1 and 5 is 5.
Total number of stickers that the three of them have
= 10 u + 5 u + 8 u
= 23 u
23 u = 253
1 u = 253 ÷ 23 = 11
Number of stickers that Emily has
= 10 u
= 10 x 11
= 110
Answer(s): 110
