Harper purchase 48 stamps at the post office. One fourth of the stamps had snowflakes and snowmen. The rest had trucks and construction equipment. How many stamps had trucks and construction equipment?

Respuesta :

First, we are going to find the one-fourth of the stamps that had snowflakes and snowmen as:

[tex]\frac{1}{4}\cdot(48)=\frac{48}{4}=12[/tex]

So, there are 12 stamps with snowflakes and snowmen. It means that the number of stamps that had trucks and construction equipment are:

[tex]48-12=36[/tex]

Answer: There are 36 stamps with trucks and construction equipment
