Carter and Ari had $240 altogether. Ari had twice as much as Carter after Carter gave him $16. How much more money did Ari have than Carter in the beginning?

Answer: $48 more

Step-by-step explanation: We use algebra. Let c = Carter and a = Ari. C+A = 240. A+16 = 2(C-16). 2C-32 + C-16 = 240. 3C - 48 is 240. 240+48 is 288. So, C is 96 and a is  144. 144- 96 = 48 more.
