DJ = $39.58

Step-by-step explanation:

KOBE (K)

DJ (DJ)

A'MARI (A)

K = $24.55 + A

DJ = K - $15.60

Total Amount = $125.40

(24.55 + A) + (K - 15.60 + A) + A = 125.40

2A + K + 8.95 = $125.40

2A + K = $116.45

2A + (24.55 + A) = $116.45

3A = $91.90

A = 91.90 : 3

A = $30.63

Therefore,

K = 24.55 + 30.63

K = $55.18

DJ = $55.18 - 15.60

DJ = $39.58
