Last season two running back's on the college football team rush for a combined 1550 yards one rushed four times as many yards as the other how many yards did the player with the most yards rush

The player with the most runs had a rush of 1,240 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the number of yards that was rushed by one of two person given their combined run and an extra information.

Firstly, let the person that had the smaller number of rush have a rush of x rushes. The second person has a rush of 4 times the other. This makes a number of 4x rushes

By adding both together, we have a total of 1550 yards

Mathematically, this means that x + 4x = 1550

5x = 1550

x = 1550/5 = 310 rushes

The second player had a rush of 4x and that is 4 * 310 = 1,240 rushes
