Question

In total Anna and Ryelin have 985 songs downloaded.

Anna has 177 more songs downloaded than Ryelin.
How many songs do each of them have downloaded?

Answer 1

Subtract 985 from 177 since Anna has 177 more songs than Ryelin. Then divide that answer by 2 which gives each one an equal amount then add 177 to one of the answers to get how many each girl has.


`985 - 177 = 808`

`808 / 2 = 404`

`404 + 177 = 581`
So Ryelin has 404 songs downloaded and Anna has 581 songs downloaded.
