Question

I am not sure if I did this correctly...can somebody check my answer.....

Answer 1

A certain sum of money was shared between three friends, A,B, and C.
A received 3/7 of the money
B got 2/3 of A
C received $49 less then A

I got the total money to equal 343 ???

Answer 2

\[\frac{3}{7}x+\frac{3}{7}\times \frac{2}{3}x+\frac{3}{7}x-49=x\] does that look right?

Answer 3

yes....I set it up like that....except I got B = 6/21x

Answer 4

wow i hope so because \(343\) is the solution !

Answer 5
