Question

Michael Pedro and Kevin were saving money. All together they saved $130. Kevin saved 3 times more than Pedro. Michael saved $20 less than Pedro.

Answer 1

Answer:

The saving of all three person are

The Pedro's saving is $ 30

The Michael's saving is $ 10

The Kevin's saving is $ 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The three person namely Michael , Pedro , Kevin

The total saving of all together = $ 130

Let The Michael's saving = $ M

The Pedro's saving = $ P

The Kevin's saving = $ k

I.e Michael's saving + Pedro's saving + Kevin's saving = $ 130

Or, M + P + K = $ 130

again ,

Kevin saved 3 times more than Pedro

I.e K = 3 × P

And , Michael save $ 20 less than Pedro

I.e M = P - $ 20

Now

∵ M + P + K = $ 130

or, (  P - $ 20) + P + 3 × P = $ 130

Or, 5 P - $ 20 = $ 130

Or, 5 P = $ 130 + $ 20

Or, 5 P = $ 150

∴ P = $ $\frac{150}{5}$

I.e P = $ 30

So The Pedro's saving = P = $ 30

And

M = P - $ 20

∴, M = $ 30 - $ 20

I.e M = $ 10

So,  The Michael's saving = M = $ 10

Similarly

K = 3 × P

∴ k = 3 × $ 30

I.e K = $ 90

So, The Kevin's saving = k = $ 90

Hence The saving of all three person are

The Pedro's saving is $ 30

The Michael's saving is $ 10

The Kevin's saving is $ 90
