There are 1100 jelly beans divided between two jars, Jar X and Jar Y. If there are 500 fewer jelly beans in jar X than three times the number of beans in jar Y, how many beans are in jar X?	Options.
A) 550
B) 600
C) 650
D) 700
E) 750
X+Y=1100 so Y=1100-X   X=3Y-500   X=3(1100-X)-500   4X=2800   X=700   The answer is 700.
