Question

Milan has 4 times as many baseball cards as Richard. Together they have 125 baseball cards. How many cards does Milan have? How many cards does Richard have?

Answer 1

Richard has 25 cards.

Milan has 100 cards.

Explanation:

If Richard has x cards then Milan has 4x, so we have the equation:

x + 4x = 125

5x = 125

x = 125/5

x = 25 cards = Richard's cards.

So Milan has 125 - 25 = 100 cards.
