Question

Kala, Deandre, and Eric have a total of $119 in their wallets, Kala has $6 more than Deandre. Eric has 3 times what kala has. How much do
they have in their wallets?

Answer 1

Deandre = x
Kala = x + 6
Eric = 3(x+6)
x + x + 6 + 3(x+6) = 119
2x + 6 + 3x + 18 = 119
5x + 24 = 119
5x = 95, x = 19
Deandre has $19
Kala has 19 + 6 = $25
Eric has 3(25) = $75
