Rick and myra collects stamps. Rick has 150 fewer stamps than Myra. Together they have collected 500 stamps. How much stamps does each person have in their collection.

Verified Answer :

mols

If Myra has m stamps, then Rick has m-150.

Together, they have 500.

Therefore, m+m-150=500
2m-150=500
2m=650
m=325.

Therefore, Myra has 325 stamps, and Rick has 175 (325-150).

Hope this helps you:)
