Question

Johnny picked 325 apples on Tuesday. This is 4 more than three times as much as he picked on Monday. If Johnny picked n apples on Monday, how many did he pick on Tuesday? Write an expression.

Answer 1

(325-4)/3 is 107 so he picked 107 on Tuesday.

Answer 2

Answer:

325 = 4 + 3n

107

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of apples picked on Monday = n

Number picked on Tuesday = 325

325 = 4 plus 3 times number picked on Monday

Hence,

325 = 4 + 3n

3n = 325 - 4

3n = 321

n = 321 / 3

n = 107

Amount picked on Monday = 107
