Hannah and Francine have $120. Hannah and Peter have $230. Peter has 6 times as much money as Francine. How much money does Hannah have?

Respuesta :

Let Hanna's money be represented by the variable: x.

Let Francine's money be represented by the algebraic expression:   120 - x

Peter's money can be represented by 6 times Francines or 6(120 - x)

Hannah an Peter have 230 therefore, Hannah's money + Peter's money = 230

 .

Since x represents the amount of money Hannah has, Hannah has $98.
