25% =
25100 =
14 Fanny spent: Fanny's total = 1 : 4
Amount that Anna spent
= 2 x 1 u
= 2 u
Amount that the three girls spent
= 1 u + 2 u + 116
= 3 u + 116
Amount that the three girls spent
= 1051 - 572
= $479
3 u + 116 = 479
3 u = 479 - 116
3 u = 363
1 u = 363 ÷ 3 = 121
Amount that Xandra and Anna had in the end
= 572 - 3 u
= 572 - 3 x 121
= 572 - 363
= $209
Answer(s): $209
