Susy had \(\frac{2}{3}\) as much money as Mary at first. After receiving \(\frac{1}{2}\) of Susy's money, Mary had $210. How much money did Susy have at first?

Answer :

Answer:

Mary originally had $105

Step-by-step explanation:

Suzy's Money = s

Mary's Money = m

After Mary received half of two-thirds of her money, she had 210.

1/2 of 2/3 = 1/3

m + 1/3*m = 210

1 1/3m = 210

m=157.5

Mary originally had $157.50

2/3 * 157.5 = 105
