Mason collects seashells each year on the family trip to Sanibel Island. He has 90 whelks, which is 37.5% of his

collection. The equation 0.375x = 90 where x represents the total number of shells, can be used to find the number
of shells in Mason's collection. What is the total number of shells in his collection?
