Question 1184110: Everyone in Wendy’s class drew a picture of
a dragon on Appreciate a Dragon Day. The
teacher put all the picture on the bulletin
board. Of the dragons, 1/4 were green, 1/6
were yellow, 1/4 were brown and 1/3 were
purple. If there were 9 more brown dragons on
the bulletin board, how many pictures did
Wendy’s class draw in total?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This condition is unclear
"If there were 9 more brown dragons on the bulletin board".
To make it clear, the problem must say "9 more than something", and properly describe that "something".
Without it, the post MAKES no SENSE.
