Jane brings 75% as many pieces of bread as treats to feed the live pets at the zoo. Wanda brings half as many treats as Jane and three times as many pieces of bread as treats. If Wanda brings 90 pieces of bread, what is the total number of pieces of bread and treats that Wanda and Jane brought to the zoo?
Thoughts? Step-by-step reasoning:
Wanda brought 90 pieces of bread, three times the number of treats, so Wanda brought 90 / 3 = 30 treats. Wanda brought half as many treats as Jane, which means Jane brought 30 * 2 = 60 treats. The total number of pieces of bread Jane brought is 75% of the number of treats, which means Jane brought 0.75 * 60 = 45 pieces of bread. Wanda and Jane brought a total of 30 treats + 60 treats + 45 pieces of bread + 90 pieces of bread = 225.
Thus, the answer is 225.
