Yolanda, Carlos, and Keith have a total of $68 in their wallets. Keith has $8 less than Yolanda. Carlos has 2 times what Keith has. How much do they have in their wallets?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Keith: 15, Carlos: 30, Yolanda: 23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of money Keith has. Then Yolanda has x+8 money and Carlos has 2x money. These all add up to 68.

x+(x+8)+2x=68

4x+8=68

4x=60

x=15

x represents how much money Keith has.

So Keith has 15 dollars, Carlos has 30 dollars, and Yolanda has 23 dollars.
