Trade Beads
Factor traded 4 glass beads and 3lb of gunpowder for 4lb of caviar and 8 furs?

On the next day he traded 2lb of gunpowder and 1 bottle of whiskey for 5lb of caviar and 4 furs.
On third day he traded 1lb of gunpowder and 2 bottles of whiskey for 6lb of caviar and 2oz gold.

How many glass beads can you expect to obtain for 1oz of gold?

b = beads
p = powder
c = caviar
f = fur
w = whiskey
g = gold

4b+3p=4c+8f
2p+w=5c+4f
p+2w=6c+2g

multiply the 2nd equation by 2 and subtract the 3rd equation to eliminate the whiskey variable

4p+2w=10c+8f
p+2w=6c+2g

3p=4c+8f-2g

substitute that into the first equation

4b+4c+8f-2g=4c+8f
4b-2g=0
4b=2g
g=2b

2 glass beads for 1 oz gold.
