Question

Raina, Aldo, and Greg have a total of $80

 in their wallets. Raina has $10

 less than Aldo. Greg has 4

 times what Aldo has. How much does each have?

Answer 1

Let a represent how much money Aldo has.

Let a - 10 represent how much money Raina has.

let 4a represent how much money Greg has

There is a total of $80.

a + (a-10) + 4a = 80

combine like terms and solve for a.

then find a - 10 and 4a for the other parts to the question.
