Question

Please help me i am in trouble

Answer 1

I'm not quite sure what the above answer is talking about, but we can work this out by working the problem backwards like so:
175 + 60 = 235
235 x 2 = 470
470 - 40 = 430
430 x 2 = 860
Therefore he had 860 paperclips to start with :))

Answer 2

1/6 is your answer hope i could help:)
