Question 1000111: Amanda is studying for her big test. She studies three times as longon Tuesday as she does on Sunday. If she studied for 24 hours how long does she study on Tuesday? Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Call the amount of time she studied on Sunday, x.
Thus she studied 3x on Tuesday.
Together she studied 24 hours, so
x + 3x + 24
4x = 24
x = 6
so that
3x = 18 hours
