Seamus has 3 times as many marbles as Ronit, and Taj has 7 times as many marbles as Ronit. If Seamus has s marbles, then, in terms of s, how many marbles do Seamus, Ronit, and Taj have together?

(A) 3s/7
(B) 7s/3
(C) 11s/3
(D) 7s
(E) 11s
Solution:

Since Seamus has s marbles and he has 3 times as many marbles as Ronit, Ronit has s/3 marbles. Since Tai has 7 times as many marbles as Ronit, Tai has 7s/3 marbles. Thus, the 3 individuals together have a total of s + s/3 + 7s/3 = 3s/3 + s/3 + 7s/3 = 11s/3 marbles.
