Well, 1/4 were redheads and 1/2 were brunettes, which leaves 1/4 which are blondes.
Since we already know that this quarter =10, we can say that the total number is 4 times that Smile

Am I right?

Simple math ... 1/4 + 1/2 = 3/4 ... Assuming we don't have anyone with black hair, the remainder must equal 1/4 Smile
And they tell you that there are 10 blondes.

Never mind ... it is Saturday :cheeky:

Well done Big Grin

My studio is full of paintings. One-fourth are portraits, one-fifth are animal paintings, one-tenth are landscapes and 45 are abstract.

How many paintings in all?
