Question

Angela and Rachel each had some money 14/19 of the amount that angela had was twice the amount Rachel had.if angela had $450.30 how much more money did angela have than rachel ?

Answer 1

Let's first find the amount of money that Rachel had.

Since 14/19 of the amount that Angela had was twice the amount that Rachel had, we can write this as an equation:

14/19 * amount Angela had = 2 * amount Rachel had

Let's call the amount that Rachel had x.

So, we have:

14/19 * 450.3 = 2 * x

To solve for x, we can divide both sides of the equation by 2:

14/19 * 450.3 / 2 = x

x = 14/19 * 450.3 / 2

x ≈ 163.94

So, Rachel had approximately $163.94.

Now, to find out how much more money Angela had than Rachel, we subtract Rachel's amount from Angela's amount:

450.3 - 163.94 = $286.36

Therefore, Angela had $286.36 more than Rachel.
