Min has 4 times as many muffins as Roshel. The total number of Min's and Roshel's muffins is 6 times of Emma's. Min and Roshel have 125 muffins more than Emma's. How many more muffins does Min have than Roshel?
Min |
Roshel |
Emma |
4x6 |
1x6 |
|
6x5 |
1x5 |
24 u |
6 u |
5 u |
The total number of muffins that Min and Roshel have is repeated. Make the total number of muffins that Min and Roshel have the same. LCM of 5 and 6 is 30.
Total number of muffins that Min and Roshel have
= 24 u + 6 u
= 30 u
Number of more muffins that Min and Roshel have than Emma
= 30 u - 5 u
= 25 u
25 u = 125
1 u = 125 ÷ 25 = 5
Number of more muffins that Min has than Roshel
= 24 u - 6 u
= 18 u
= 18 x 5
= 90
Answer(s): 90
