Need help with granddaughters math problem (4th grade)
B has twice as much as A. C has three times as much as B. Together they have $171. What do each have ?
I know the answer is $19 - but what is the equation to figure this ? This seems to be an algebra problem. I got the answer by just plugging in numbers till it worked.
Thanks
