Answer 1

Answer: Wendy,$860

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the money Betty has be $x.

Then, Money Wendy has=$4x.

Let the money Helen had be $y.

A.T.Q.

x+y=$2380. ----------------------------(1)

4x+y=$4324. ------------------------------(2)

Subtract equ. 1 from 2

(4x+y)-(x+y)=$4324-$2380

3x=$1944

x=$648

Money Betty has=$648

Money Wendy has=$2592

Money Helen has=$2380-$648
