Question

Allen has 4 times as many cards as bob, and Jane has twice as may card as allen. Together, Allen and Jane have 468 cards. How many cards do Allen, Jane, and bob each have

Answer 1

Answer:

No of cards with Allen is 156

No of cards with Jane is 312 and

No of cards with Bob is 39

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider no of cards with Bob is X.

Then, the no of cards with Allen is 4X

And the number of cards with Jane is 8x

So;

Allen and Jane have 468 cards

4X+8X=468

12X=468

:X=468/12

X=39

Hence;the number of cards with Bob is 39

With Allen is 4X=4*39=156 and

With Jane is 8X=8*39=312
