You can put this solution on YOUR website! Kelly earns 20% more than Cici, and together they earn 990 per week. How much does Kelly earn per week?
If the answer is not an integer, enter it as a decimal. Round to the nearest hundredth, if needed.
-------
Let Cici earn "x".
Then Kelly earns "1.2x".
-----
Equation:
x + 1.2x = 990
2.2x = 990
x = $450 (Cici's weekly earning)
