Dominique has four times as much money in his savings account as in his checking account. The total amount is $2,300.00 (Let x be the amount in his checking account).
***
let x=amt in checking account
2300-x=amt in savings account
2300-x=4x
5x=2300
x=460
2300-x=1840
amt in checking account=$460
amt in savings account=$1840
