2-103.
At the annual dog show, Chantel noticed that there were three more Schnauzers than Scotties. She also realized that the number of Wirehaired Terriers was three less than twice the number of Schnauzers. If there were 78 dogs in all (counting Schnauzers, Scotties, and Wirehaired Terriers), how many Schnauzers were there? Homework Help ✎
Make a guess and check table with the first column labeled Schnauzers, the second column labeled Scotties (Schnauzers − 3), the third column labeled Terriers ((Schnauzers(2) − 3), and the fourth column labeled Total = 78.
