Respuesta :

Answer:

The baseball cards remain in Nathan’s collection is 106 cards

Explanation:

Total number of cards Nathan has= 220

Number of cards he let his brother have = 1/4 of his collection

=[tex]\frac{1}{4} \times 220[/tex] = 55 cards

Number of cards he sells = 20% of his collection

=[tex]\frac{20}{100} \times 220[/tex]

=44 cards

No of cards he gives to his friends=15 cards

Remaining cards = total number of cards – (no of cards he gave to his brother+ cards he sold+ cards he gave to this friends)

= 220 – ( 55+44+15)

=220-114

=106 cards

baseball cards remain in Nathan’s collection is 106 cards
