After giving Mrs Chan 65 cookies, Mrs Tay had 3 times as many
cookies as Mrs Chan.
How many cookies did Mrs Chan have at first?​

Answer :

aryasus30

Answer:

425-65=360

360-65=295

Mrs Chan had at first 295 cookies

425 - 65 = 360 ( what mrs tay has left. )
360 / 3 = 120 ( no. of cookies mrs chan has )
120 - 65 = 55 ( cuz mrs chan received the 65 cookies from mrs tay at first )

thus the answer is 55.
