Question

4. Three friends are collecting football cards. They have 240 cards between them. Zukile has 60 more cards than Adam, and Siya has twice as many cards as Adam. If Adam has x number of cards, write and solve an equation to find how many cards they each have. ​

Answer 1

Zukile has 105, Adam has 45, Siya has 90

Explanation:

Not sure how right this is, but I did: 240=2x+x+(60+x)

Simplify to: 240=60+4x

Simplify to: 180=4x

Simplify to: 45=x
