In March, Isaiah and Freddie had the same amount of money in their savings accounts. In April, Isaiah deposited $210 into his account. Freddie increased the money in his account by 15%. When they compared their balances, they found that they were still equal.

How much money did they both have in their accounts in March?

if they were equal both times they checked this means that 15% of their $ was equal to $210
so 15/100   = 210/x
so .15x=210
x=210/.15 
x = 1400

Answer:

They both have in their accounts in March $1400

Step-by-step explanation:

They had the same amount of money in their savings in March.Next month, Isaiah deposited $210. At the same time, Freddie increased the money by 15%.

After that, they compared again, and they found that they were still equal. So, we can conclude that 15% of the initial amount is $210 because the money was the same in March and April.Now, we need to calculate 100%. We know 15% to be $210.

210 * (100/15) = 1400.

Finally, we can conclude that the initial amount for both corresponds to 100% and it is $1400.
