Answer

the answer is 90 (C)

Explanation:

Beth = x

Caroline = 60 + x (because if Beth has 60 less than Caroline then Caroline has 60 more than Beth)

Since the ratio = 1/3 ( another way of writing 1:3) then x/60+x = 1/3

3x = 60 + x

3x - x = 60

2x = 60

x = 60/2

x = 30 (Beth has 30 stickers)

Caroline has 60 + x stickers = 60 + 30 = 90
