x + 4x = 150

5x = 150  

x = 30

John has x = 30 coins

Mary has 4x = 4*30 = 120 coins.Let the number of coins John has be "x".

The the number of coins Mary has is "4x"

John has 40 coin and Mary has 160 coins because 40 times 4 equals 160 and 160 plus 40 equals 200 so Mary has 160 and John has 40
