40% =
40100 =
25 Winnie spent: Winnie's total = 2 : 5
Amount that Tina spent
= 3 x 2 u
= 6 u
Amount that the three girls spent
= 2 u + 6 u + 186
= 8 u + 186
Amount that the three girls spent
= 2319 - 733
= $1586
8 u + 186 = 1586
8 u = 1586 - 186
8 u = 1400
1 u = 1400 ÷ 8 = 175
Amount that Jade and Tina had in the end
= 733 - 3 u
= 733 - 3 x 175
= 733 - 525
= $208
Answer(s): $208
