zain and hina have 375 strawberries.Each time hina picks 3 strawberries zain has 2. how many strawbrries did each of them pick up?
----------------------
Let number of berries picked by zain be 2x; then # of berries
piciked by hina will be 3x
Equation:
3x + 2x = 375
5x = 375
x = 75
2x = 150 (# of berries picked by zain)
3x = 225 (# of berries picked by hina)
