Answer:

Hardy has 470 more tennis balls than Kerns.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total number of tennis balls = 940

Let,

x represents the number of tennis balls Hardy has.

y represents the number of tennis balls Kerns has.

According to given statement,

x+y=940     Eqn 1

x = 3y         Eqn 2

Putting x = 3y in Eqn 1

3y+y=940

4y=940

Dividing both sides by 4

\frac{4y}{4}=\frac{940}{4}\\y=235

Putting y=235 in Eqn 2

x = 3(235)

x = 705

Difference = Hardy's tennis balls - Kerns' tennis balls

Difference = 705 - 235 = 470

Hence,

Hardy has 470 more tennis balls than Kerns.
