Right now, Al and Eliot have bank accounts, and Al has more money than Eliot. The difference between their two accounts is 1/12 of the sum of their two accounts. If Al’s account were to increase by 10% and Eliot’s account were to increase by 20%, then Al would have exactly $20 more than Eliot in his account. How much money does Eliot have in his account right now?
Choose the correct choice from the following choices
A) $ 110
B) $ 120
C) $ 180
D) $ 200
E) $ 260

Rationale: "lets assume al have amount a in his bank account and eliot ' s bank account got e amount . we can form an equation from the first condition . a - e = 1 / 12 * ( a + e ) = = > 11 a = 13 e - - - - - - - - - - - - ( 1 ) second condition gives two different amounts , al ' s amount = 1.1 a and eliot ' s amount = 1.2 e 1.1 a = 20 + 1.2 e = = > 11 a = 200 + 12 e - - - - - - - ( 2 ) substituting ( 1 ) in ( 2 ) : 13 e = 200 + 12 e = = > e = 200 d"
Answer: D
