Answer:

Answer 5

Yeah i agree @Bamawam because 250 divided by 2 is 126 so that means Frank has at least 126 books.

Answer 6

I mean 125

Answer 7

Because 125*2 = 250

Answer 8

wrong because it says when he doubled it he had more than emily

Answer 9

250/2=125 That means that Frank needs at least 126 books now so that 126*2=254 And as you know 254>250 Anything 254 and above is correct.

Answer 10

It is saying before he doubled it, how many would he have.

Answer 11

Sorry, anything 126 and above is correct.

Answer 12

@Bamawam is correct

Answer 13

Exactly, @Bamawam because it said MORE than it.

Answer 14

Wow this is a lot to explain. Ok here goes: Emily has 250 books. Frank has more than her when he doubles his real amount of books. So, his real amount of books would be anything above 125 because 520 divided by 2 (which is reversing the doubled amount of books) is 125. So if he would have more than her if he doubled his books, than before he doubled his books, he would have no less than 125. @Kendraluv2 There you go. :)

Answer 15

When I said 520 I meant to say 250. LOL :)
