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 115 bags. How many bags did norm
Sell

Answer 1

Answer: 17

Explanation:

x = bags Chris sold

x + 4 = bags Norm sold

5(x+4) = bags Bill sold

x + (x+4) + 5(x+4) = 115

2x + 4 + 5x + 20 = 115

7x + 24 = 114

7x = 91

x = 13

Norm: x + 4 = 13 + 4 = 17
