Cindy bought a jacket. Jill bought a jacket that cost 3 times as much as cindy. The total was 300$. What equation can you make to find the out how much they paid? How much did cindy and jill pay?

Jill paid $225 and cindy paid $75.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, you can say that the price of Jill's jacket plus the price of Cindy's jacket is equal to 300:

x+y=300 (1), where:

x is the price of Jill's jacket

y is the price of Cindy's jacket

Also, you know that Jill bought a jacket that cost 3 times as much as cindy, which would be:

x=3y (2)

Now you can replace (2) in (1) and solve for y:

3y+y=300

4y=300

y=300/4

y=75

Finally, you can replace the value of y in (2) to find x:

x=3y

x=3*75

x=225

According to this, the answer is that Jill paid $225 and cindy paid $75.
