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
