Answer 1

Answer:

Keiko have $31 in her wallet.

David have $25 in his wallet.

Tony have $50 in his wallet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Keiko

Let x = the amount in Keiko’s wallet.

David

David has $6 less than Keiko .

x - 6

Tony

Tony has has two times what David has.

2(x - 6)

The total sum of their money = 106

Keiko

x + x - 6 + 2(x - 6) = 106

2x - 6 + 2x - 12 = 106

4x - 18 = 106

4x = 106 + 18

4x /4 = 124/4

x = 31

Therefore Keiko have $31 in her wallet.

David

x - 6

31 - 6 = 25

Therefore David have $25 in his wallet.

Tony

2(x - 6)

2(31 - 6)

2(25) = 50

Therefore Tony have $50 in his wallet.
