Let's assume that Raven received $x in each birthday card.
Since she received three cards with the same amount of money, the total amount she received from the cards is 3 * x = 3x.
Raven's initial savings account balance was $250, and after depositing her birthday money, her savings account balance became $340.
Therefore, we can set up the equation 250 + 3x = 340 to represent this situation.
To solve for x, we subtract 250 from both sides of the equation:
3x = 340 - 250
3x = 90
Finally, we divide both sides of the equation by 3 to solve for x:
x = 90.
Therefore, Raven received $90 in each birthday card.
