Hey there!!

Jason = 800 + Paul

Alex = Jason - 150

How much more does Alex have the Paul?

Let's take the equation of Alex

... Alex = Jason - 150

... Add 150 on both sides

... Alex + 150 = Jason

Now we have the equation for Jason,

... Jason = 800 + Paul , and we got Alex + 150 = Jason

... Now let's plug in the values

... Alex + 150 = 800 + Paul

Subtract 150 on both sides...

Alex = 800 - 150 + Paul

... Alex = 650 + Paul

Now we got the answer for our question :

The answer - Alex has $650 than Paul.

Hope my answer helps!!
