The square footage of the two bedrooms in the apartment that Jenny and Martha share totals 300 square feet. If Jenny's bedroom is 60 square feet larger than Martha's, how large, in square feet, is Martha's bedroom? Give me reasons, before answering the question
User
Let M be the number of square feet in Matha's bedroom. Jenny's bedroom is M + 60 square feet. M + M + 60 = 300. 2M + 60 = 300. 2M = 240. M = 120. Martha's bedroom is 120 square feet. So the final answer is 120.
