is class is holding a canned food drive for charity. Juliet
collected 10 more cans than Rosana. Santiago collected twice as many
cans as Juliet. If they collected 130 cans altogether, how many cans did
Juliet collect?

Answer 1

Answer:

juliet collected 50 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be rosanas cans

10+x+2x = 130

simplify

10 + 3x = 130

3x = 130 - 10 = 120

x = 120/3 = 40

rosanas cans = 40

juliets cans = 40 +10 = 50

santiagos cans = 50 x 2 = 100

but i think the question is wrong!!
