Abel and Cedric will share a total of $180. Abel will receive half as much as Cedric. What amount. in dollars, will Cedric receive (Disregard the $ sign when gridding your answer.)

Cedric's share=$120

Abel's share=$60

Step-by-step explanation:

Abel will receive half as much as Cedric

Let

Cedric's share=x

Abel's share = 1/2 of x

Total money=$180

x + 1/2x = 180

2x+x/2 =180

3/2x=180

Divide both sides by 3/2

x= 180÷3/2

=180 × 2/3

=360/3

=120

Therefore,

Cedric's share = x = 120

Abel's share=1/2x

=1/2 × 120

=120/2

=60

Cedric's share=$120

Abel's share=$60

12
