Emily and sarah had a total of $80. after sarah spent 1/3 of her money and emily spent $17, emily had twice as much money as sarah. how much more money did emily have then sarah at first?

 SO in total, Emily and Sarah had a total of 80 dollars in which Emily had twice as much as Sarah.
Let’s solve to find out how much their Money is.
=> Since the ratio of the given data is 2:1, 2 + 1 =3, so let’s divide 80 by 3
=> 80 / 3 = 26.667 ,
=> Emily has twice as this.
=> 26.667 * 2 = 53.33
=> Sarah has 26.67
Now, Sarah spent 1/3 of her money
=> 26.67 / 3 = 8.89 – her remaining money
Emily spent 17 dollars of her money
=> 53.33 – 17 = 36.33

Ithink the answer is d.
