Answer 1

Answer:

The last one

Step-by-step explanation:

$96.57

Answer 2

Answer: 1. Equation =3x = M , where x = money each received and M= total money received.

2.total money from bake sale=$96.57

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1

Let the total money receive from proceeds be = M

and let the amount of money each receive after the split  = x

Since   Jan and her two friends raised the money together, the total proceeds will be calculated using the equation

x+x+x= M

3 x = M ---- Equation

STEP 2--- Solving

if 3 x= M

and x =mount of money each receive after the split=$32.19

Therefore total money from bake sale, M = 3x = 3 x 32.19 = $96.57
