Bunny27:Pls assist me this question:
Jane has $60 more than Candice. If Candice gives Jane $20, the amount of money Jane has will be thrice that of Candice's. How much does each of them have ?
Thank u:)
Draw a model to solve this question.
You will realise that two units are actually $20+$20+$60 which is $100.
Alternatively at last Candice has one unit. If she didn't give she would have 1u + $20. And as for Jane, if she didn't receive, she would have 3u - $20.
And that you know that Jane has $60 more than Candice. So that means that
1u + $20 = 3u - $20 - $60
$20 + $20 + $60 = 2u
2u = $100
1u = $50
Candice: $50 + $20 = $70
Jane: $70 + $60 = $130

Hardworking eh, 加油哦!!
