Kylie and Kayla pick apples together and take home 340 apples total. If Kayla picked 10 more than 4 times the amount of apples that Kylie picked, how many apples did Kayla pick?
Define a variable ** Let x be the number of apples Kylie picked
How many apples did Kayla pick? ** Kayla picked 10+4x apples
Set up an equation ** 340=x+(10+4x)
Combine like terms ** 340=5x+10
Subtract 10 from both sides ** 330=5x
Divide by 5 ** x=66 apples
How many apples did Kayla pick? ** Kayla picked 10+4(66)=274 apples
