Question

Abiodun and taiwo share 735 naira between them so that abiodun get 95naira more than taiwo find how much money each gets

Answer 1

Abiodun gets - 415 naira

Taiwo gets - 320 naira

Explanation:

Let us consider x and y as Abiodun and Taiwo,

Therefore , acccording to the question , equation formed will be -

`x+y=735` naira ------ 1

and

`x=y+95`

`x-y=95` ------2

From equation 1 and 2, we get

`2x=830`

`x=(830)/(2)`

`x=415` naira (that is Abiodun share)

now , Calculating Taiwo share from equation 1

`x+y=735\\415+y=735`

`y=735-415`

y = 320 naira (that is Taiwo share )

Therefore , Share of Abiodun = 415 naira

Share of Taiwo = 320 naira
