sally and susan had an equal amount of oney each. after sally spent $15 and susan spent $24, the ratio of sally's money to susan's money was 4:3. how much money did each girl have at first?
Answered by Henry
$24 - $15 = $9.00.
They had the same amount left.But Susan
spent $9 more. Theefore, Susan had $9
more to begin with:

Sally had $X.
Susan had $(X+9).

(X+9)/X = 4/3.
4x = 3x + 27
X = $27.
X+9 = 27+9 = $36.

After they spent the money of $15 and $24 respectively, Sally has $x+9 and Susan has $x. Which is at a ratio of 4:3

(x+9)/x=4/3
4x=3x+27
x=27
So after spending the money, Sally has $36 and Susan has $27.
How much did they have to start with? Add $15 to Sally and $24 to Susan.
36+15=51
27+24=51
They had $51 each to start with.

24-15=9
4:3 multiply with 9 = 36:27
36+15= 51
27+24=51
Both have $51 at first
