Let x represent Oliver's score. The 4x would be Meg's score (4 times Oliver's score) and Jane score would be 4x + 50 (50 more than Meg). Now set up the problem and solve for x (Oliver's score) 4x + 50 (Jane) + 4x (Meg) + x (Oliver) = 1400 (then simplify) 9x + 50 = 1400 (then subtract 50 from each side) 9x = 1350 (then divide both sides by 9) x = 150 (these are how many points Oliver scored) Proof: (4 x 150 + 50) + (4 x 150) + 150 = 650 + 600 + 150 = 1400
