Problema Solution
LEa had $134, and Drew had $180. After both of them spent an equal amount of money shopping, Drew had 3 times as much money as Lea. How much did each of them spend?
Answer provided by our tutors
let 'x' be the money that each of them has spent shopping
180 - x = 3*(134 - x)
180 - x = 402 - 3x
3x - x = 402 - 180
2x = 222
x = 222/2
x = $111
each of them spent $111.
