Question

it is a hard question for me. i am really unable to solve this question.Will you please help me?

 

Answer 1

How many sets of 9 are in 486?

 

486/9 = 54

 

Thus, there are 4 points a total of 54 times: 4(54) = 216 points

Answer 2

Set up a ratio of points and stickers by using the information that we are

given, and then solve for the unknow.

 

4/9 (4 over 9) = X/486 (X over 486)

 

now cross multiply and we get 9X=1,944

 

now divide both sides by 9 and we get X=216 points
