Complete Question
Jack climbed a beanstalk with 256 leaves. The Giant's beanstalk has only 20 more than 1 / 4 the amount of leaves than Jack's beanstalk. How many leaves does the Giant's beanstalk have?
Answer:
84 leaves
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets represent Jack's beanstalk = J
Giant's bean stalk = G
The Giant`s beanstalk has only 20 more than 1 / 4 the amount of leaves than Jack`s beanstalk
Giant's bean stalk = 20 + (1/4 × J)
= 20 + (1/4 × 256)
= 20 + 64
= 84
Therefore, the Giant's bean stalk has 84 leaves
