Ali weight 25 pounds more than Akram. If together they weight 205 pounds, what is the weight of Ali?

Answer: 115
Explanation

Let's denote Akram's weight as x. Since Ali weighs 25 pounds more than Akram, Ali's weight is x + 25.

Step 1: Formulate the equation based on their combined weight

x + (x + 25) = 205

Step 2: Solve the equation

2x + 25 = 205

2x = 180

x = 90

Step 3: Calculate Ali's weight

Ali's weight = x + 25 = 90 + 25 = 115
