The fruit stand has 72 cantaloupes. they are separated into two groups. group a has twice as many as group b. how many cantaloupe are in group a? how many cantaloupe are in group b

If the fruit stand has 72 cantaloupes and group A has twice as much as group B, then you have to divide 72 by 3. Now you have to mutiply the quotient by 2 and that is how much cantaloupes in group A. The quotient by itself is how much there is in group B. So the answer is... 48 cantaloupes are in group A and 24 cantaloupes are in group B.
