Jean has three times as much money as Jane. They have a combined total of $76. How much money does Jean have?
Let's assume the total amount of money that Jane has is m.
Since Jean has 3 times as much money as Jane, he has 3*m=3m
Combined, Jean and Jane have a total of m+3m = $76
This evaluates to 4m=$76
The total amount of money that Jane has, represented by m, is m=$76/4
Jane has m=$<<19=19>>19
Since Jean has three times as much money as Jane, Jean has 3*$19=$57
