a truck is carrying waterbottles. 1/4 of the the total number of bottles in the truck plus 18 bottles is equal to 56 bottles. how many bottles is the truck carrying? write only a numerical answer
1/4 of the total number of bottles in the truck carries (56-18= 38) so 38 bottles in 1/4 of the total number of bottles, and if 1/4 of it is 38 bottles, I'm guessing you would have to do 38*4 to get your answer (152 bottles).
