Answer:

Serena had $32 at the end.

Step-by-step explanation:

They both had x in the beginning.

Bryan donated $258, so now he has

x - 258

Serena donated $234, so now she has

x - 234

Serena now has 4 times as much money as Bryan.

x - 234 = 4(x - 258)

x - 234 = 4x - 1032

-3x = -798

x = 266

They both had $266.

$266 - $234 = $32

Answer: Serena had $32 at the end.
