Question

Can you please help me with 12 please? I will give an brainlist

Answer 1

Answer:

$x+(\frac{1}{2} x + 12) =$ number of postcards Simone has now

Step-by-step explanation:

x = the number of postcards in Simone's collection

Simone bought 12 more than half the number of postcards in her collection.

So Simone bought half her collection ( $\frac{1}{2} *x = \frac{1}{2} x$ ) plus 12 more postcards.

$(\frac{1}{2}x +12)$ = number of postcards Simone bought

Write an expression to show how many pstcards she has now.

$x+(\frac{1}{2} x + 12) =$ number of postcards Simone has now

Answer 2

Let she has p no of postcards before .

She bought 12 more than the half of p

• p/2+12

Currently she has

• p+p/2+12
• 3p/2+12
• (3p+24)/2 postcards
