Helena Jane savings

Helen had 20% more savings than Jane. They have saved 1804 CZK. How much have Helen and Jane held?

Final Answer:

H =  984
J =  820

Step-by-step explanation:


H=J+0.20·J
H+J=1804

H-1.2J = 0
H+J = 1804

Row 2 - Row 1 → Row 2
H-1.2J = 0
2.2J = 1804


J = 1804/2.2 = 820
H = 0+1.2J = 0+1.2 · 820 = 984

H = 984
J = 820
