HELP ASAP (50 pts!!) Kaely and Bro share an account on a game and want game bucks. 2,800 bucks cost $25. Kaely adds $15 and Bro adds $10. They need to figure out how much bucks they each get too spend depending on the amount of money they each payed. If $25 = 2,800 bucks, then what does $15 = and $10 =? (How much bucks does Kaely get and how much bucks does Bro get)

Answer: The correct answer is Kaely gets 1,680 bucks and Bro gets 1,120 bucks.

Step-by-step explanation: Here's how you figure it-

2800 bucks= $25. If Kaely adds $15, that would be 15/25 of the price which then can be reduced to 3/5 of the cost of the bucks. 3/5 changed to a decimal= .60. So, 2800 x .60= 1,680 bucks. Do the same thing for Bro. He adds $10 or 10/25 reduced to 2/5. 2/5 changed to a decimal= .40. So 2800 x .40= 1,120 bucks

1680 + 1120= 2800

Answer:

Kaely gets 1,680 and Bro gets 1,120

Explanation:

First you need to find how may bucks you will receive with 1$

2,800/25

which equals 112

Then multiply 112 by how much Kaely paid and how much Bro paid. Then you have your answer.
