Nicole has x marbles. Together we have 44 marbles. How many marbles will I have if I lose 1/4 of my marbles ?

I have:

33 - 3N/44   marbles

N = marbles of Nicole

Step-by-step explanation:

Nicole + me = 44 marbles

m = 44 - N

m = me

N = Nicole

if i lose 1/4 of my marbles

4/4 - 1/4 = 3/4

i have left:

3/4 of my marbles

then:

m = 3(44-N)/4

m = 3*44/4 + 3*-N/44

m = 33 - 3N/44

I have finally:

33 - 3N/44

i got 86 for this

hope this !
