Question

Ricardo has 2 cases of video games Edith the same number of games in each case. He gives 4 games to his brother. Ricardo has 10 games left. How many video games were in each case

Answer 1

7 games

Explanation:

Ricardo has 2 cases with x number of games in each. This means 2x is the amount of video games in both. He gives away 4. He now has 2x-4 and has 10 left. This is 2x-4=10. Solve for x.

2x - 4 = 10

2x = 14

x=7
