Terrence and Lee were selling magazines for a charity. In the first week, Terrance sold 30% more than Lee. In the second week, Terrance sold 12 magazines, but Lee did not sell any.

Lee sold 60 magazines

Step-by-step explanation:

1st week:

Lee sold = x magazines

Terrence sold magazines (30% more)

2nd week:

Lee sold = 0 magazines

Terrence sold = 12 magazines

Total:

Lee sold = x + 0 = x magazines

Terrence sold = 1.3x + 12 magazines

If Terrance sold 50% more than Lee by the end of the second week, then

x - 100%

1.3x + 12 - 150% (50% more), then

Hence, Lee sold 60 magazines
