Question

Veronica got 3 times as many gifts as Natalie. Together Veronica and Natalie got a total of 12 gifts. How many gifts did Natalie (x) and Veronica (y) each get?

Answer 1

Natalie = x

Veronica = 3x

Altogether 4x meaning 4 parts

12 divided by 4 = 3

Natalie got 3 gifts veronica got 9


Another way to work this out is with ratio

1:3 of 12 gifts
1+3 = 4
12 divided by 4 = 3
Each part is 3 gifts
