Answer:
Adam scored 60, Brandon scored 66, Chen scored 74, Damion scored 75, and Erica scored 75.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since five friends took the maths test, and Adam, Brandon, and Chen together together scored 200 marks; Brandon, Chen and Damion together scored 215; Chen, Damion and Erica together scored 224; and Damion and Erica scored more than Chen; While the five of them together scored 350 marks, to determine what are their individual scores the following calculations must be done:
Adam + Brandon + Chen = 200
Damion + Erica = 150
Brandon + Chen + Damion = 215
Adam + Erica = 135
Chen + Damion + Erica = 224
Adam + Brandon = 126
Adam + Brandon = 126 + Chen = 200
Chen = 200 - 126
Chen = 74
Damion and Erica scored more than Chen
Chen + Damion + Erica = 224
74 + Damion + Erica = 224
Damion + Erica = 150
Damion = 75
Erica = 75
Brandon + Chen + Damion = 215
Brandon + 74 + 75 = 215
Brandon = 215 - 74 - 75
Brandon = 66
Adam = 350 - 75 - 75 - 74 - 66
Adam = 60
Therefore, Adam scored 60, Brandon scored 66, Chen scored 74, Damion scored 75, and Erica scored 75.
