Answer:

Total no. of sweets = 96

Step-by-step explanation:

Frank = 4x

Mary = 5x

Seth = 7x

7x = 4x + 18

7x - 4x = 18

3x = 18

x = 18/3

x = 6

No. of sweets Frank had = 4 × 6 = 24

No. of sweets Mary had = 5 × 6 = 30

No. of sweets Seth had  = 7 × 6 = 42

Total no. of sweets = 96

Check ⇒

42 = 24 + 18

42 = 42

L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence, the answer is correct.
