After a shopping spree at Target, John realized he spent three times more money than his brother Mike. They spent a total of $160. If you choose x to represent the
amount of money that Mike spent, what choice below would represent the amount of money that John spent?

Respuesta :

Answer:

John spent around $53

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is 3x=160

Since the "x" is already by itself on one side, divide 160 by 3

160÷3=53.333⇒

Now if that's not the way IT CAN ALSO BE:

30x3+70=160! That means John spent $90
