110 Flynn's savings : Total savings = 1 : 10
Elijah's savings = 50 u
50 u = 1250
1 u = 1250 ÷ 50 = 25
Flynn's savings = 11 u
Savings of the other three boys
= 50 u + 5 u + 44 u
= 99 u
Savings that Flynn had less than the total of the three other boys
= 99 u - 11 u
= 88 u
= 88 x 25
= $2200
Answer(s): $2200
