Emily has 3 times as many stickers as Olivia. Olivia has
58 as many stickers as Ivory. If the three of them have a total of 196 stickers, how many stickers does Ivory have?
| Emily |
Olivia |
Ivory |
| 3x5 |
1x5 |
|
| |
5x1 |
8x1 |
| 15 u |
5 u |
8 u |
The number of stickers that Olivia has is repeated. Make the number of stickers that Olivia has the same. LCM of 1 and 5 is 5.
Total number of stickers that the three of them have
= 15 u + 5 u + 8 u
= 28 u
28 u = 196
1 u = 196 ÷ 28 = 7
Number of stickers that Ivory has
= 8 u
= 8 x 7
= 56
Answer(s): 56
