Karas golf score was one less than three fourths of gregs golf score. If he sum of their scores was 153 find karas golf score
-------
k= (3/4)g - 1
k + g = 153
------------------------
Substitute for "k" and solve for "g"::
(3/4)g - 1 + g = 153
------
(7/4)g = 154
-------------------
(1/4)g = 22
g = 88 (greg's score)
-----
k = (3/4)88 -1 = 65 (Karas's score)
-------------
