The amount of money each of Mr Mokwebo 's two sons; Tokelo and Refentse will get is R116 and R95 respectively.

<h3>How to write and solve equation:</h3>

  • Amount needed to buy chocolate = R253
  • Tokelo's money = x
  • Refentse's money = x - 21

Total amount needed = Tokelo's money + Refentse's money

253 = x + (x - 21)

253 = x + x - 21

253 = 2x - 21

253 - 21 = 2x

232 = 2x

divide both sides by 2

x = 232/2

x = 116

Therefore,

Tokelo's money = x = R116

Refentse's money = x - 21

= 116 - 21

= R95
