Question

andy had 3 times as many stamsp as Bala. Cheng Yi had the same number of stamps as Andy. The three boys had a total of 395 stamps. How many stamps did Andy have?

Answer 1

Answer:

168 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

let number of stamps with Bala be x

so number of stamps with Andy will be 3x

and number of stamps with Cheng Yi will also be 3x

as

number of stamps with Andy=number of stamps with Cheng Yi

now the total number of stamps are 395

so

x+3x+3x=395

7x=395

x=395÷7

x=56

3x=3*56

=168

so the number of stamps with Andy are 168 stamps
