Question

Kevin has 30% less money than Erin. Kevin has $140. How much money does Erin have

Answer 1

Erin has $200

Explanation:

Kevin = K

Erin = E

30% of Erin = 0.3E

K = E - 0.3E

K = 140

Substitute

140 = E - 0.3E

140 = 0.7E

Divide both sides of the equation by 0.7

E = 200

Erin has $200

Hope this helps :)
