There are 1400 jelly beans divided between two jars, Jar X and Jar Y. If there are 300 fewer jelly beans in jar X than three times the number of beans in jar Y, how many beans are in jar X?
Choose the correct choice from the following answers:	A) 925	B) 950	C) 975	D) 1000	E) 1025
X+Y=1400 so Y=1400-X   X=3Y-300   X=3(1400-X)-300   4X=3900   X=975   The answer is 975.
