Question

Garth has a collection of postcards from

around the world, and he has organized
them in albums. Each album holds
480 postcards. His collection already
fills two albums and one-fourth of
another album. How many postcards
does Garth have?

Answer 1

1080 postcards

Explanation:

WIth 2 full albums you take 480 and multiply it by 2 to get 960 and 1/4 of 480 is 120 because we divide 480 by 4 to get that and if we add 120 to 960 we get 1080.

Answer 2

1080

Explanation:

480 + 480 + 1/4(480) = 1080
