Can anyone please help me give solution and explanation for this question ?
a) All the information in the question can be represented in table form below:
Used | Left | Total | |
Melissa | 3 units | 0.5 unit + 6 | 3.5 units + 6 |
Nuru | 1 unit | 1 unit +12 | 2 units +12 |
3.5 units + 6 + 2 units + 12 = 106
5.5 units +18 = 106
5.5 units = 88
1 unit = 88 ÷ 5.5
= 16 beads
b) 3.5 units → 16 x 3.5
= 56
56 + 6 = 62 beads
Check:
Used | Left | Total | |
Melissa | 16 x 3 = 48 | 8 + 6 = 14 | 62 |
Nuru | 16 x 1 = 16 | 16 + 12 = 28 | 44 |
Thank you so much for the clear explanation
