(D) $306
(E) $408​

Respuesta :

The right answer is Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Kyle's money = x

Hayden's money = y

Jeremy's money = z

According to statements;

Kyle has three times as much money in his savings account as  Hayden.

x = 3y   Eqn 1

Hayden has twice as much money in his savings account  as Jeremy.

z = 2y   Eqn 2

Combined Kyle, Hayden, and Jeremy have a total of  $612.

x+y+z=612   Eqn 3

Putting value of x and z from Eqn 1 and 2 in Eqn 3

[tex]3y+y+2y=612\\6y=612[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 6

[tex]\frac{6y}{6}=\frac{612}{6}\\y=102[/tex]

Putting in Eqn 1;

[tex]x=3(102)\\x=306[/tex]

Kyle has $306 in his account.

The right answer is Option D.
