Bob has the fewest cards; call the amount that Bob has:  x

Allen has four times as many cards as Bob; Allen has 4x

Jane has twice as many cards as Allen; Jane has 8x

 

Together, they have 468 cards:  x + 4x + 8x  =  468

                                                                13x  =  468

                                                                    x  =  36

Bob:     x  =  36

Allen:  4x  =  ...

Jane:  8x  =  ...
