Answer:

This means the boys throw 300 snowballs while Buddy throws 1200 snowballs

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations

Let's call

x = number of snowballs the other boys throw.

4x = number of snowballs Buddy throws.

We know Buddy throws 1200 snowballs, thus

4x = 1200

Divide by 4:

x = 1200/4

x = 300

This means the boys throw 300 snowballs while Buddy throws 1200 snowballs
