Larry and Steve have 171 marbles in all.  The number of marbles Larry has is 39 fewer than 3/7 of the number of marbles Steve has.  How many marbles does Steve have?

Answer :

supervishnu04
Steve = x marbles,    Larry = 3x/7 – 39 marbles
Total marbles = 171 = steves + lary’s
X + 3x/7 – 39 = 171
X + 3x/7 = 171 + 39
10x/7 = 210
10x = 210 * 7
10x = 1470 X = 147
 Larry = 3/7(147) – 39  
Larry = 63 – 39 = 24
Steve = 147
 Total marbles = 147 + 24 = 171
