Question

Which equation compares the number of candy bars that Katrina and Bob have sold, if Katrina sold three-quarters of the amount that Bob sold? (Let k = number of Katrina 's candy bars and b = number of Bob's candy bars.)

Answer 1

The equation that compares the number of candy bars that Katrina and Bob have sold is;

k = 3b/4

Step-by-step explanation:

k = number of Katrina's candy bars

b = number of Bob's candy bars.

Since Katrina (k) sold three-quarters of the number of candy bars sold by Bob (b)

Therefore,

k = ¾ × b

k = 3b/4
