What is the answer to number 3 ? show me how you solved

Hello Brobro21

We know the now Tom has 16 comic books, but the sentence before showed that he bought 9 more comic books, so

16 - 9 (because we can figure out the first problem)

= 7

Then since it says that he sold half,

7 times 2

= 14

So Tom had 14 comic books to begin with

:)

if you are saying purchasing 3 social media ads and one newspaper ad counts as one purchase then there are:

6 purchases

if you are asking how many of each then:

18 social media ads

6 newspaper ads

correct answer is b. 27/8
