Kaylee has 76 more beads than Alice, and 3/5 of Alice’s beads is equal to 1/3 of Kaylee’s beads. How many beads does Kaylee have

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Alice's beads be represented as x and Kaylee's beads as y

Kaylee has 76 more beads than Alice,

y = 76 + x ... (1)

3/5 of Alice’s beads is equal to 1/3 of Kaylee’s beads.,

 .. (2)

substitute eq(1) in eq(2)

we get

solving the above equation, we get

x = 95, subsitute in eq(1)

y = 76 + 95

y  = 171

Kaylee has 171 beads

answer: was that a question or answer?

step-by-step explanation:

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
