ale has three dollars more than twice the amount of money that Leo has. Which statement makes this comparison using the correct variable expression?

Let Ale's money=a

Let Leo's money=L

a=2L+3

You may have to rearrange any multiple choice answers algebraically, but they should all simplify down to the a = equation.

In problems like this, you can solve by thinking of how the word problem defines the variable. Ale is defined as twice Leo, plus three.
