Problema Solution
If you take 1/2 as many photos on Friday as you do on Saturday and take twice as many on Sunday as you do on Saturday and have 42 photos total, how many did you take each day? Need to know the equation to solve.
Answer provided by our tutors
Let
x = the number of photos taken on Saturday
(1/2)x = the number of photos taken on Friday
2x = the number of photos taken on Sunday
x + (1/2)x + 2x = 42
........
........
x = 12 photos
12 photos were taken on Saturday.
(1/2)*12 = 6 photos were taken on Friday.
2*12 = 24 photos were taken on Sunday.
