Question

Uriah has twice as much money as Cassius. Together they have $105. How much does Uriah have?

Answer 1

uriah has 70 dollars and cassius has 35

Answer 2

Let the amount Cassius has = X

The amountUriah has is twice as much so he has 2x

Together they have 105:

X + 2x = 105

Simplify:

3x = 105

Divide both sides by 3:

X = 105 / 3

X = 35

Cassius has $35

Uriah has $70
