Three girls are playing a game. At the end of the game, the total of their scores were 504. A scored 10% more than B, while Cassie scored 60% of the combined scores of the other two. What did each player score?
@Genuine Have you understood the question ?
I dont really understand the "10% more than B and 60% of the combined scores of A and B" @ash2326
Let the three girls score A, B and C points We are given the total of their score \[A+B+C=504\] Do you get this part?
Yes i do understand that
A scored 10 % more than B, so \[A= 110\% of\ B=1.1 B\] Cassi scored 60 % of the combined score of A and B, so \[C= 60 \% of\ (A+B)=0.6(A+B)\] Do you get this ?
Yes ! Okay i think that ive got this
Could you try now?
Thanks for helping me out! I figured out the answer :D
