Answer:

  • Sunny = 228 stamps
  • Rashika = 76 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

Sunny has collected 3 times the stamps that Rashika has collected but in total they have both collected 304 stamps.

Assume that Rashika has x stamps. This would mean that Sunny has (3 * x) or 3x stamps.

In an equation this would be:

x + 3x = 304

4x = 304

x = 304/4

x = 76 stamps

Rashika has 76 stamps.

Sunny has 3 times that number:

= 76 * 3

= 228 stamps
