Pam laid three times as many tiles on Saturday as she laid on Sunday. If Pam laid 80 tiles over the weekend altogether, how many tiles did she lay on Saturday?
20 tiles
27 tiles
54 tiles
60 tiles

Respuesta :

Pam laid 60 tiles on Saturday.

Lets break it down:
Over all, she laid down 80 tiles, 3 times as much on Saturday than Sunday.

Saturday Sunday
---------------------------------
3 1
3+1= 4

So now we know what to divide 80 by (4).
80÷4= 20
20×3= 60 (We do this because it is 3 times as much)

Hope this helps!
