Twins Lidia and Henry collected snow globes. When they left for college, they split the collection, such that Lidia got 75% of the snow globes. If Lidia got 460 more snow globes than did Henry, how many snow globes did Henry get?

Answer:

230

Explanation:

Okay, so if Lidia got 75% means that Henry got 25%, right?

Then Lidia got 50% more than Henry did. So that 460 = 50%

So Henry got 25% which is 460/2 = 230 snow globes
