garden.The rest ten were still undecided.How many bees were there in all?
Half a swarm of bees went to collect honey from a matured field.Three fourth of the rest went to a rose?
bees = 10*2*4/(4--3) = 80
Reply:1/2+(1/2*3/4)=all-10
1/2+3/8=all-10
7/8=all-10
10=1/8
in all there were 80 bees.
Reply:do it backwards.
10 is 1/4 of the half that didnt go to the honey, so half is 40, which mean there must ahve been 80 bees
Reply:80 bees
10*4*2
