Samuel,Rick and daniel sshare $700. 4times samuels share is equal to 5 times ricks share. twice ricks share is also 3 times daniels share.how much does daniel recieve?
OK.....
2R=3D or R = 3/2D
4S=5R (and in the step above R= 3/2D....substitute this value for R)
4S = 5 (3/2D)
S= 5/4 (3/2D) = 15/8 D
the total money R + S + D = 700
Substitute for R and S 3/2 D + 15/8 D + D = 700 Solve for D = 160 ( then R= 240 and S=300)
