Answer:

Each women will have finished 18 scarves in 2 days

Explanation:

We can set up an equation with x being the number of days passed.

From Camilla we get 6+6x and from Nancy we get 9x

6+6x=9x

6=3x

x=2

Plug x=2 in)

6+6(2)

6+12

18

Answer:

  • 2 days
  • 18 scarves

Explanation:

We know that:

  • C = 6 + 6(x)
  • N = 9(x)

Work:

  • => 6 + 6x = 9x
  • => 6 = 3x
  • => x = 2

This means that it will take 2 days for Nancy to catch up with Camilla. Now, let's substitute the value into the second equation to find out how much scarves have each woman finished.

  • => N = 9(x)
  • => N = 9(2)
  • => N = 18

Hence, each woman has finished 18 scarves when Nacy caught up to Camillia.

Hoped this helped.
