Question 2 3

Sarah had 28 stickers and put x number of stickers on her binder. Haylee had 40 stickers and put three times as many
stickers on her locker as Sarah put on her binder.
How many stickers did Sarah put on her binder if they had the same number of stickers left?

Answer 1

6. Let’s start with the equation 28-x=40-3x. Then, we can derive that to 28=40-2x. 40-12 is 28, and 12/2 is 6.
