When their aunt give them x amount of money, David have RM 180 + x
Maria have RM 55 + x
David have twice as much money as Maria mean:
( 180 + x ) / ( 55 + x ) = 2
Multiply both sides by 55 + x
180 + x = 2 ∙ ( 55 + x )
180 + x = 2 ∙ 55 + 2 ∙ x
180 + x = 110 + 2 x
Subtract x to both sides
180 + x - x = 110 + 2 x - x
180 = 110 + x
Subtract 110 to both sides
180 - 110 = 110 + x - 110
70 = x
x = 70
Their aunt gave it RM 70
Proof :
( 180 + x ) / ( 55 + x ) =
( 180 + 70 ) / ( 55 + 70 ) =
250 / 125 = 2
Maria have RM 55 + x
David have twice as much money as Maria mean:
( 180 + x ) / ( 55 + x ) = 2
Multiply both sides by 55 + x
180 + x = 2 ∙ ( 55 + x )
180 + x = 2 ∙ 55 + 2 ∙ x
180 + x = 110 + 2 x
Subtract x to both sides
180 + x - x = 110 + 2 x - x
180 = 110 + x
Subtract 110 to both sides
180 - 110 = 110 + x - 110
70 = x
x = 70
Their aunt gave it RM 70
Proof :
( 180 + x ) / ( 55 + x ) =
( 180 + 70 ) / ( 55 + 70 ) =
250 / 125 = 2
