Answer:

$15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Frank be f

Deandra be d and

Charlie be c

f = 3d ......(i)

c=$20+f.....(ii)

c=$65........(iii)

Equate (ii) and (iii)

$20+f = $65

f = $45.......(iv)

Equate (i) and (iv)

3d = $45

d = $15

Deandra has $15.

Answer: the amount of money that Deandra has is $15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let f represent the amount of money Frank has in dollars.

let d represent the amount of money Deandra has in dollar.

Frank has three times as many dollars as Deandra. This means that

f = 3d

Charlie has 20 more dollars than Frank. If Charlie has $65, it means that the amount that Frank has is

65 - 20 = $45

Substituting f = 45 into f = 3d, it becomes

45 = 3d

d = 45/3

d = 15
