Question

francene baked 120 tarts, 4/5 of the tarts were chocolate tarts. the rest were strawberry tarts. she gave an equal number of chocolate and strawberry tarts away and had 7 times as many chocolate tarts as strawberry tarts left. how many tarts did she give away?

Answer 1

start: 120 thangs...(4/5)=choklut...96

so (1/5)=Strawberry=24

giv awae sum av both, then number left...(96-x) =7*(24-x)

96 -x=-7x +168

6x=168-96=72

x=72/6=12

hav 12 strawberry left

choklut...96-12=84=7*12
