A design is made using twice as many large beads as small beads.
The mass of each large bead is 120 milligrams.
The mass of each small bead is 80 milligrams.
The total mass of all the beads used is 32 grams.
How many beads are used in total to make the design?

Respuesta :

Answer:

When the remainder theorem is applied to the total number of beads, the number of beads left is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of beads used in each design are given as:

Calculate the total number of beads used for all three designs

The number of available beads is:

Divide 750 by 83, to get the total number of designs

Remove decimal (do not approximate)

The number of beads remaining is calculated using:

Hence, there are 3 beads remaining
