Answer:

$6.80

Explanation:

First, we know that Kevin has $25.

Next we know that Kevin has $2.20 less than 4 times the amount molly has in her account.

This means that 25+2.20=27.20 is four times molly's total checking account amount.

To find how much is in Molly's account, lets divide $27.20 by 4.

27.20/4=6.8

6.8 is $6.80. This is how much is in Molly's account.
