Question 1112955
.
<pre>
{{{(1/4)*K}}} = {{{(2/9)*L}}}         (1)

L = K + 3             (2)


Multiply (1) by 36 (both side) to get


9K = 8L               (3)


and then substitute  (2)  into (3). You will get


9K = 8*(K+3)  ====>  9K = 8K + 24  ====>  K = 24.


<U>Answer</U>.  K has 24 stamps;  L has 3 more, i.e. 27.
