Answer:

Kelly owes $16.5

Greg owes $33

Joe owes $64.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Kelly's portion = x

Greg's portion = 2x

Joe's portion = 4x - 1.50

Total bill = $114.00

Total bill = Kelly's portion + Greg's portion + Joe's portion

114 = x + 2x + (4x - 1.50)

114 = 3x + 4x - 1.50

114 = 7x - 1.50

Add 1.50 to both sides

114 + 1.50 = 7x - 1.50 + 1.50

115.5 = 7x

Divide both sides by 7

x = 115.5 / 7

= 16.5

x = $16.5

Kelly's portion = x

x = $16.5

Greg's portion = 2x

= 2 × 16.5

= $33

Joe's portion = 4x - 1.50

= 4(16.5) - 1.50

= 66 - 1.50

= $64.5

Therefore,

Kelly owes $16.5

Greg owes $33

Joe owes $64.5

x         86


If we calculate the conventional way,
This gives us 23,456 * (6 + 80)
= (23,456 * 6) + (23,456 * 80)

First, we multiply 23456 by 6, the figures obtained will be 140736 (which is given in the question)

Next, we multiply 23456 by 80, the figures obtained will be 1,876,480
