Lizzy: Amanda needs 12 more marbles to have twice as many marbles as Katrina, and Mabel has 5 times as many marbles as Katrina. If Mabel has 85 marbles, how many more marbles does Mabel have than Amanda?.
Me: Hmmm, let me think. I think this is the detailed solution:
Katrina has 85 / 5 = 17 marbles. Twice as many marbles as Katrina is 17 x 2 = 34. Amanda has 34 - 12 = 22 marbles. Mabel has 85 - 22 = 63 more marbles than Amanda. Final answer: 63.
