Allison has 5 times as many baseball cards as football cards. in all she has 120 baseball cards and football cards. how many baseball cards does allison have?

To solve this question, try thinking about it differently. We know Allision has 5 times as many baseball cards as football cards. So the question is, five times what? If your total answer is 120, you know that five has to be divided by 120 Simply do the division and 24 will be your answer. To double check, make sure 5*24 is indeed 120. :)
