A $106.78

B $128.60

C $136.88

D $144.99

Verified Answer :

1.       Let
Travis = T

Jessica = j

And Robin = T


=> T = 20% more than J

=> J = 20% less than T

=> R = 35 % More than T

Travis collected 43$, find how much money did they collected

=> T = 43 dollars


=> J = 43 dollar x .20 =8.6

=> J = 43 – 8.6 = 34.4

=> J = 34.4


=>R = 43 x .35 = 15.05

=> R = 43 + 15.05

=> R = 58.05


43 + 34.4 + 58.05 = 135.45= total money they collected.

The answer must be 135.45
