Three friends earned more than $200 washing cars. they paid there parents $28 for supplies and divided the rest of money equally. write an inequality to find possible amounts each friend earned. identify what your variable represents

So

x=earned

x>200

they paid their parrents 28 for supplies (this assumes that they paied 28 altogether and not 28 each)

so subtract 28 from pay

new pay=y

y>200-28

y>172

divided it among themselves (3)

172/3=57 and 1/3=57.33

they each earned more that $57.33
