1 u + 17 + 29 = 1 u + 46 |
1 u + 17
|
Change |

+ 46 |
After |
1 u |
1 u + 17 + 46 = 1 u + 63 |
At first, Luis had $29 more than Roshel. After giving to Roshel, he had $63 less than Roshel. This means he gave Roshel more than $29.
Additional amount that Luis gave to Roshel
= (63 - 29) ÷ 2
= 34 ÷ 2
= $17
Total amount that Luis gave to Roshel
= 17 + 29
= $46
Answer(s): $46
