2/5 of Josh's money was 3/4 of Ken's money. When Ken gave Josh $28, both of them would have the same amount of money. How much did Josh have at first?

2/5x + 28 = 3/4x - 28

x = 160

Josh had $120             

3/4(160) = 120     

  120 - 28 = 92     

  2/5(120)=48

 

 

 

Ken had  $64             

  2/5(160) = 64         

 64 + 28 = 92       

Josh money =3/4(64) = 48
