Kim made soup which contains 75 total ounces of beans. The soup has two kinds of beans, black and red. There are 4 times as many ounces of black beans as red beans. How many ounces of red beans are in the soup?

Sagot :

We let the number of red beans be x, this would make the number of black beans as 4x.

So:
[tex]x+4x=75 \\ 5x=75 \\ x=15[/tex]

This would mean there are 15 red beans in the soup.
