Question 1106861: Kelly pays 10% more each month in rent than Cici, and together they pay $1050.00 per month. How much does Kelly pay per month?

Let the amount Cici pays be 'y';
Then Kelly pays (1+1/10)y = (11/10)y;
So y+(11/10)y = 1050
10y+11y = 10500
21y = 10500
y = $500.00
Kelly therefore pays (11/10)×500
= $550.00
