Given:
No. of kittens Maria has= 5
No. of ribbons used= 3pink + 3 blue = 6
To find:
No. of kittens with two ribbons
Solution:
Since there is 1 more ribbon than there are number of kittens,
and according to question, all kittens were dressed up
so after giving one ribbon each to a kitten, one ribbon remains which is then given to one of the 5 kittens.
Hence, only one kitten has two ribbons
