25% =
25100 =
14 Anna spent: Anna's total = 1 : 4
Amount that Yoko spent
= 4 x 1 u
= 4 u
Amount that the three girls spent
= 1 u + 4 u + 167
= 5 u + 167
Amount that the three girls spent
= 1309 - 587
= $722
5 u + 167 = 722
5 u = 722 - 167
5 u = 555
1 u = 555 ÷ 5 = 111
Amount that Yen and Yoko had in the end
= 587 - 3 u
= 587 - 3 x 111
= 587 - 333
= $254
Answer(s): $254
