Question

A Service Club Sold popcom to raise money

for its projects. Bill Sold 5 times as many
bags of popcorn as norm. Norm sold four
bags more than Chris. Together they sold
115⁰ bags. How many bags did norm
Sell

Answer 1

Explanation:

we can assign variables to each character.

Bill -B

Norm-N

Chris-C

We know the total is 115 bags so let us make an equation.

5N=B

C+4=N

5(C+4)+C+4+C=115

C=13

So we know Chris has 13 bags and now we plug the rest in.

5(13+4)=85(Bill)

13+4=17(Norm)

So Norm sold 17 bags
