That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
If 1/3rd of John's stamps are Indian stamps, and he has 36 Indian stamps, we can use this information to find the total number of stamps he has.
Let's denote the total number of stamps John has as "T."
Since 1/3rd of the stamps are Indian stamps, we can set up the equation:
(1/3) * T = 36
To solve for T, we need to isolate T by multiplying both sides by 3:
(1/3) * T * 3 = 36 * 3 T = 36 * 3 T = 108
So, John has a total of 108 stamps from different countries.
