Question 1008444: Mindy and Troy combined ate 9 pieces of the wedding cake. Mindy ate 3 pieces of cake and Troy had 1/4 of the total cake. Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! We have m + t = 9.
If m = 3 then t = 6.
If t = 6 and it represents 1/4 of the cake, there were
24 pieces in the cake.
