Larry, Barry, Terry are saving their money for a trampoline that costs $340. • The amount of money Larry has saved can be represented by x. • The amount of money Barry has saved is 1 1 2 times the amount Larry has saved. • The amount of money Terry has saved is 1 1 3 times the amount Larry has saved. • The total amount of money saved by Larry, Barry, and Terry is $322. What is x, the amount of money saved by Larry?

Respuesta :

Larry = X
Barry = 112x
Terry = 113x
L+B+T= 322

x+112x+113x=322
226x=322
x= 322/226   x=1.42
 Larry saved $1.42
X= $84.075 is Larry’s amount saved.

You multiply this # by 1.5 to get Barry’s amount saved, and multiply 84.075 by 1.33 (Terry’s 1 and a third more than Larry’s) Then add all together to get $322.03
