Let's represent the number of apps on Sarah's phone as x.

Therefore, the number of apps on Rachel's phone is 4 + (4 * x).

The total number of apps on both girls' phones is x + (4 + 4x) = 115.

Combining like terms, we get 5x + 4 = 115.

Subtracting 4 from both sides, we get 5x = 111.

Dividing both sides by 5, we get x = 22.

Therefore, the number of apps on Sarah's phone is 22.
72 divided by 5
The quotient of 72 divided by 5 is 14 remainder 2.
115 divided by 4
The quotient of 115 divided by 4 is 28 remainder 3.
