Mr. Rifkin had 240 digital and manual cameras. After donating 82 digital cameras and 26 manual cameras, he had 3 times as many digital cameras as manual cameras left. How many digital cameras did he have at first?

  181

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d represent the number of digit cameras Mr. Rifkin had at first. Then 240-d is the number of manual cameras he had. The after-donation numbers are ...

  (d -82) . . . digital cameras after donating 82

  (240 -d) -26 . . . manual cameras after donating 26

These values are related by ...

  (d -82) = 3((240 -d) -26)

  4d = 724 . . . . . add 3d+82 and simplify

  d = 181

Rifkin had 181 digital cameras at first.
