<span>Okay so let x = the amount of apples that Maria picks.
Andre picks three times as much as Maria, so amount Andre picks = 3x

Jane picks two times as much as Andre, and Andre = 3x So Jane = 2(3x), = 6x
</span><span>All of these added together should give 840.
</span>
<span>x + 3x + 6x = 840
</span><span>10x = 840.
</span><span>x = 84
</span><span>Therefore, Maria picked 84 pounds of apples
Andre picked 3x = 3 x 84 = 252 pounds of apples.
Jane picked 6x = 6 x 84 = 504 pounds of apples.</span>

Jan spent the day at the mall. She came home with $9.50. She spent $5.25 on earrings and 3 times that amount on a shirt. How muc
ki77a [65]

Answer:

She took $30.50 to the mall originally

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the problem step by step

∵ She spent $5.25 on earrings

∵ The price of the shirt is 3 times the price of the earrings

∴ The price of the shirt = 3 × 5.25 = 15.75

∴ She spent $15.75 on the shirt

Find her total spending in the mall by adding the prices of earrings and the shirt

∴ She spent = 5.25 + 15.75 = 21

∴ She spent $21 on the mall

∵ She came home with $9.50

∵ She spent $21 on the mall

- Add them to find her original amount of money

∴ She took = 21 + 9.50 = 30.50

∴ She took $30.50 to the mall originally
