Amy has 80 and April has 40 CDs. 80 + 40 = 120
80 is 2 times bigger than 40
Sony has 80 and April has 40 CDs

The size of CD "sets" can be found by dividing the 120 CDs they have by 3 (Amy has two "sets" and April has one "set"). 120 divided by 3 gives you 40 per "set," and because Amy has twice as many CDs, she will have twice as many "sets," or 80 CDs, while April has 40.
