Tapiwa raked %5, percent more leaves than adam raked. together, they raked 697 liters of leaves. how many liters of leaves did adam rake?

 If we assume that Adam raked x liters of the leaves then Tapiwa raked 105% of the  liters of leaves by Adam (1.05 x liters). But, we know that the total liters of leaves are 697.
                       Thus    x + 1.05 x = 697
                                  = 2.05 x = 697
                           thus x = 340
Thus Adam raked 340 liters of leaves while Tapiwa raked  357 liters 
Hence the number of liters by Adam as required in the question is 340 liters.

Ithink it should be 55.
