Samantha has 3/4 as many colored pencils as Carl Carl has 4/5 as many color pencils as Maurice if they have 96 colored pencils altogether how many fewer colored pencils does Samantha have the Morris

16 colored pencils.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pencils that Maurice has.

We have been given that Carl has 4/5 as many color pencils as Maurice, so Carl have pencils.

We are also told that Samantha has 3/4 as many colored pencils as Carl, so Samantha would have pencils.

Since have 96 colored pencils altogether, so we will equate sum of all pencils with 96 as:

Now, we will subtract from x of 40 as:

Therefore, Samantha has 16 fewer colored pencils than Morris.

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:
