Question

Raul has 56 bouncy balls. He puts three times as many balls into red bags as he puts into green gift bags. If he puts the same number of balls into each bag,how many balls does he put into green bags?

Answer 1

If he puts 3 times as many balls into red than green, and each bag has the same number of balls, this means he has 3 times more red bags then green bags. Overall, we can say that the 56 balls are being put into 4 groups of bags (3 red, 1 green). This leaves 56/4 balls in each group. Since there is only one green group, we can say 56/4 = 14 balls go into green bags

Answer 2

I think the answer is 112
