You have 18 stamps from mexico in your stamp collection. these stamps represent 3/8 of your collection. the rest of the stamps are from the united states. how many stamps are from the united states

Let the total collection of stamps with you be 'x'

Number of Mexico stamps = 18

= 18

3x = 8*18

3x = 144

x = 48

So total number stamps you have are 48

So United States stamps = Total number of stamps - Number of stamps of Mexico

48 -18 = 30

Number of stamps from the United States are 30
