Sabrina has $4 more than Kylie. Joelle has four times as much money as Sabrina. They have a total of $134.
- How much money does Sabrina have?
- How much money does Joelle have?
(a)
Amount that Sabrina has = 1 u
Amount that Kylie has = 1 u - 4
Amount that Joelle has = 4 u
Total amount that they has
= 1 u + 1 u - 4 + 4 u
= 6 u - 4
6 u - 4 = 134
6 u = 134 + 4
6 u = 138
1 u = 138 ÷ 6 = 23
(b)
Amount that Joelle has
= 4 u
= 4 x 23
= $92
Answer(s): (a) $23; (b) $92
