Question 407200: Cory made sandwiches for a picnic.1/6 were cheese sandwiches, 1/3 were peanut butter sandwiches, and 9 were ham sandwiches. How many sandwiches did Cory make altogether? Answer by robertb(5830) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let s = # of sandwiches.
==> s/6 + s/3 + 9 = s
==> s/2 + 9 = s
==> 9 = s/2
==> s = 18 sandwiches , total.
