Answer:
The number of cupcake did Mary has 20.83
The number of cupcake did Paul has 104.15
Step-by-step explanation:
The total cupcakes to eat altogether = 125
Let The number of cupcake did Mary has = x
So The number of cupcake did Paul has = 5× x
So, According to question
The number of cupcake did Paul has + The number of cupcake did Mary has = 5× x + x
Or . 5×x + x = 125
Or, 6 x = 125
∴ x = [tex]\frac{125}{6}[/tex] = 20.83
The number of cupcake did Mary has = 20.83
The number of cupcake did Paul has = 5×x =5 × 20.83 = 104.15
Hence The number of cupcake did Mary has 20.83
