Mike weighs 24 more pounds than Mark. Together, they weigh 250 pounds. How many do they each weigh?

Sagot :

To get your answer, follow my method :

First you take away 24 from 250=226
Then you half 226=113 which is Mark's weight
As Mike weights 24 pounds more that Mark, you have to add 24 back=137
So your answer is :
Mark weights 113 pounds and Mike weights 137 pounds.
