Question

Jasmine wants to organize her books in order of most number of pages to least Number of pages Jasmine's longest book have 396Pages of a short his book has one fourth as many pages as the longest if the book in the middle of her shelf has three times the number of pages of the shortest book then how many pages does the middle book have

Answer 1

If the shortest has 1/4 pages as the longest divide the longest by 4: 396/4=99, so the shortest book has 99 pages. The middle book has 3 times the number of pages in the shortest book so multiply the shortest by 3: 99•3=297, the middle book has 297 pages :)
