    Answer:

    kojo = x + 15

    kofi = $182.50

    kojo = $197.50

    Step-by-step explanation:

    kofi = x  

    kojo = x + 15 (since Kojo h as 15 cedis more than Kofi)

    380= x + 15 + x

    2x + 15 = 380

    combine like terms

    2x = 380 – 15

    2x = 365

    x = 182.50

    Kojo = 15 + 182.50 = $197.50
