Question 1004643: Amanda, Kareem, and Sam sent a total of 130 text messages during the weekend. Amanda sent 10 more messages than Kareem. Sam sent 3 times as many messages as Kareem. How many messages did they each send? Answer by jorel555(1290) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let k=Kareem. Then Amanda is k+10, and Sam is 3k. So:
k+k+10+3k=130
5k=120
k=24
k+10=34
3k=72!!!!!!!!!
