Ned weighs 1 1/2 times as much as jill and tom weighs 15 kilograms more than jill. if their combined weight is 190 kilograms, how much does each person weigh?

Ned = 1.5 * jill

tom = 15 + jill

tom + ned + jill = 190

substitute ned and tom into the equation:

(15 + jill) + (1.5 * jill) + jill = 190

15 + jill + 1.5jill + jill = 190

3.5jill = 175

jill = 175 / 3.5

then substitute this into the tom and ned equations to find your answers for them
