Answer by robertb(5830) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
h +f = 120
h + p = 230
p = 6f
Substitute the 3rd equation into the 2nd equation: h + 6f = 230. Then from this, h = 230-6f. Put this into the 1st equation: 230-6f + f = 120, or
-5f = -110, or f = 22. This means h = 120-f = 120-22 = 98. Hannah has $98.
