James is a botanist studying the production of beans by two types of bean plants.
He noticed that the string bean plant produced 30% more beans than the lima bean
plants. Based on James' observation, if the string bean plants produced 130 string
beans, how many lima beans did the lima bean plant produce?

Answer :

TREKKERgo

Answer:

100 lima beans

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write an equation with s = string beans and l = lima beans:

s = 1.3l

We can now plug in 130 = s to get:

130 = 1.3l

We divide both sides by 1.3 and get:

100 = l

That means the lima bean plant produced 100 lima beans

Answer:

91

Step-by-step explanation:

130 * 30% =

130 * 0.3 =

39

130 - 39 = 91
