Dan saved twice as much as Brett. Maria saved $60 more than Brett. If they saved $600 altogether, how much did Maria save?

givi [52]

Setting it up, we have Dan + Bret + Maria all saving 600.00
Dan = 2B
Bret = B
Maria = B+60

2B + B + B + 60 = 600
4B = 540
B = 135

Dan = 2(135) = 270
Brett = 135
Maria = 135 + 60 = 195
