Answer:
Articles written by Mustafa = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of articles written by Mustafa = M
Articles written by Heloise (H) = (1/4)M .... (1)
&
Articles written by Gia (G) = (3/2) M ... (2)
Total articles written by all three combined is given as 22
∴ M + H + G = 22
Putting values of H and G in terms of M from eq 1 and 2, we get
M + (1/4)M + (3/2)M = 22
∴ M + 0.25M + 1.5M = 22
∴2.75 M = 22
∴ M = 22/2.75
∴ M = 8
