    4x + 5 = 101

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step 1: Determine how much money both have

    Aylen: x

    Rich: 5 + 3x

    Step 2: Write an equation and solve

    Aylen + Rich = 101

    x + 5 + 3x = 101

    Step 3: Solve the equation

    x + 5 + 3x = 101

    4x = 96

    x = 24

    Step 4: Determine how much money does Aylan and Rich have

    Aylan has $24

    Rich has 5 + 3 (24) = $77
