Sagot :

Answer:

162 t-shirts, 324 posters

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming they only sold t-shirts and posters, you can find the amount of t-shirts sold by dividing 486 by 3, or multiplying it by 1/3. This equals 162. This is because one third were t-shirts. To find the rest you just subtract 162 from the total of 486, or multiply 162 by 2. (since you already know the amount of 1/3, 2/3 is double that.)

486/3 = 162; 486 - 162 = 324

therefore there were 162 t-shirts and 324 posters
