Nicole and Jane are making a photo album of the 165 vacation pictures they took. Nicole took twice as many pictures as Jane. How many vacation pictures did Nicole and Jane each take?
2j + j = 165 number of pictures Nicole took number of pictures Jane took equals 165 and 2j + j = 165 j = number of pictures Jane took
j = number of pictures Jane took 2j + j 3j j = 165 = 55 3 3 j = number of pictures Jane took
Nicole and Jane are making a photo album of the 165 vacation pictures they took. Nicole took twice as many pictures as Jane. How many vacation pictures did Nicole and Jane each take? Jane took 55 pictures. Nicole took 110 pictures.
