Problema Solution

Four year old Anna Jane has been working hard all day making sandcastles. She was able to make twice as many sandcastles before luck as she made after lunch. If the total number of sandcastles Anna Jane made that fatwas three times her age, how many sandcastles did she make after lunch

Answer provided by our tutors

we interpret "before luck" to mean "before lunch"

we interpret "made that fatwas three times her age" to mean "made was three times her age"


let '2x' represent the number of sandcastles made before lunch, then 'x' represents the number made after lunch


3*4 = 12 total sandcastles were made


12 = x + 2x

12 = 3x

x = 12/3 = 4


she made 4 sandcastles after lunch
