Question

Alan has some stickers with him. Julia has 3 times the number of stickers Alan has. Both of them together

have 36 stickers. How many stickers does Alan have?
a 3
b 27
c 9
d 36

Answer 1

Answer:
c) 9

Step-by-step explanation:
We can easily cross out the answers A and D. As they don’t fit the question. So let’s try the other two. C makes the most sense as we also need to multiply by 3 for Julia and after that add both people’s stickers together which is suppose to be 36.

(I’m kinda bad at explaining but hope you understand!!)
