Is anyone here a math genius? I knew someday I would get stuck on my kid's homework I just didn't think it would be 3rd grade math. LOL
Here's the problem I'm stuck on:
Solve. Show your work. Draw bar models to help you.
Alex had 200 more magnets that Kevin did at first. After Alex gave away 340 magnets and Kevin bought another 120 magnets, Kevin had 3 times as many magnets as Alex. How many magnets did Alex and Kevin have altogether at first?
