divide 60 sweets between sabrina and her sister angela so that sabrina fets thrice as many as angela​

Sagot :

let the number of sweets with Angela be " x "

and , let the number of sweets with Sabrina be " 3x "

Then ,

[tex]\bold{x + 3x = 60} \\\\\bold{ 4x = 60} \\\\\bold{ x = \cancel \frac{60}{4}} \\ \\\fbox\pink{ x = 15}[/tex]

Hence ,

number of sweets with Angela = 15

number of sweets with Sabrina = 3(15) = 45
