(a) Write down an expression, in terms of m, for
(i) the number of marbles Nazaneen has,

Answer 1

Here we want to create algebraic expressions for different quantities.

i) Nazaneen has  3*m marbles.

ii) Karly has m + 4 marbles.

a) The given data is:

Shireen has m marbles.

Nazaneen has three times as many marbles as Shireen.

Knowing that Shireen has m marbles, we can conclude that Nazaneen has:

3*m marbles.

Karly has 4 more marbles than Shireen, then Karly has m + 4 marbles.

Then the equations for the number of marbles that each one has are:

Shireen = m

i) Nazaneen has  3*m marbles.

ii) Karly has m + 4 marbles.
