Answer: she begin with 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
At the beggining she had A books.
She sold half of that, so now she has A/2 books.
She bought 9, so now she has A/2 + 9 books,
And we know that A/2 + 9 = 11 books
So A/2 = 11 - 9 = 3
A = 2*3 = 6
So she started with 6 books
Answer:
She began with 4 books
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the original number of Jessi Comic books be x
When She sold half of the comic books, she has ( x - x/2) = x/2 left
When she bought 9 more, she has 11 in total. That is, x/2 + 9 = 11
x/2 = 11 - 9
x/2 = 2
x = 2 * 2
x = 4
She began with 4 books
