Question

The middle school dance team had 2 separate car washes on Saturday to raise money for new uniforms. The Main Street location raised $50 more than the Back Street location. How much did the dance team raise at each location if they raised a total of $980?

Answer 1

$465 at Back Street

$515 at Main Street

Explanation:

980 (total) - 50 (the difference between the two) = 930

930/2 = 465 (back street)

465 + 50 (the difference) = 515 ( main street)

CHECK: 465 + 515 = 980
