Anna had
14 as much money as Aria at first. After Anna received $301 and Aria received $91, both of them had the same amount of money. How much did Aria have at first?
|
Anna |
Aria |
Before |
1 u |
4 u |
Change |
+ 301 |
+ 91 |
After |
1 u + 301 |
4 u + 91 |
The amount that Anna and Aria had in the end is the same.
1 u + 301 = 4 u + 91
4 u - 1 u = 301 - 91 = 210
3 u = 210
1 u = 210 ÷ 3 = 70
Amount that Aria had at first
= 4 u
= 4 x 70
= $280
Answer(s): $280
