Leila, reuben, and scott have a total of 63 in the wallets. leila has 5 less than scott. reuben has 2 times what scott has. how much does each have

L = Money that Leila has

R = Money that Reuben has

S = Money that Scott has

L = S - 5

R = 2S

L + R + S = 63

S - 5 + 2S + S = 63 [ substitute ]

4S - 5 = 63

4S = 68 [ add 5 both sides ]

S = 17

Scott has $17

L = 17 - 5 = 12

Leila has $12

R = 2 (17) = 34

Reuben has $34
