Kira, Bill, and Michael served a total of 134 orders Monday at the school cafeteria. Michael served 3 times as many orders as Kira. Bill served 9 more orders that Kira. How many orders did they each serve?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Kira served 25 orders, Bill served 34 orders and Michael served 75 orders.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Kira served x number of orders.

So, Bill served (x + 9) orders and Michael served 3x orders.

Now, it is given that Kira, Bill, and Michael served a total of 134 orders.

So, x + (x + 9) + 3x = 134

⇒ 5x + 9 = 134

⇒ 5x = 125

x = 25

Therefore, Kira served 25 orders, Bill served (25 + 9) = 34 orders and Michael served 3 × 25 = 75 orders. (Answer)
