Answer :
Charlie has 5 times as many stamps as Ryan then C = 5R.
R + C = 1608.
So we plug in for C
R + 5R = 1608
6R = 1608
R = 268
Now find Charlie by plugging in and we get
268 + C = 1608
C = 1340
Lets check our answer
1340 = 5(268) yup we are right.
R + C = 1608.
So we plug in for C
R + 5R = 1608
6R = 1608
R = 268
Now find Charlie by plugging in and we get
268 + C = 1608
C = 1340
Lets check our answer
1340 = 5(268) yup we are right.
