Helena lost her marbles. but then she found them and put them in 4 bags with m marbles in each bag. she had 3 marbles left over that didn't fit in the bags. how many marbles does helena have in all?

Helena has marbles in all.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of marbles be denoted by 'm'.

Helena found them and put them in 4 bags with m marbles in each bag.

Total marbles in 4 bags become =

Now, she had 3 marbles left over that didn't fit in the bags.

That gives total marbles as =

We can solve this using an example.

Suppose Helena had 15 marbles in total.

She divides these in 4 bags, plus 3 extra.

Now, m = 3

So, putting the value of m as 3 in equation we get,

=

= 15

Therefore, we can say that Helena has

marbles in all.

341

step-by-step explanation:

all you have to do is 9x31 (which equals 279) and then 20x31 (which equals 620). then you have to subtract. 620-279=341.

answer: x=3 and y=4
