Answer:

223

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: Caleb made $37 in tips last night.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount in tips that Caleb made last night.

last night Jose made $12 more tips than Caleb. It means that amount that Jose made in tips is $(x + 12)

Caleb make $12 more in tips than Evan. It means that amount that Evan made in tips is $(x - 12)

Evan made $12 more in tips and Isaac. It means that amount that Isaac made in tips is (x - 12) - 12 =

$(x - 24)

Together they made $124 in tips. It means that

x + x + 12 + x - 12 + x - 24 = 124

x + x + x + x + 12 - 12 - 24 = 124

4x - 24 = 124

4x = 124 + 24 = 148

x = 148/4

x = $37
