Amy,nicholas,cindy and calvin shared $60 amy received 1/2 of the total amount of money received by nicholas,cindy and calvin.nicholas received 2/3 of the total amount of money received by cindy and calvin.cindy received 3 times as much as calvin. A. How much money did amy receive? B. How much more money did nicholas receive than calvin?
If the four had amounts w,x,y,z then we know that
w+x+y+z = 60
w = (x+y+z)/2
x = 2/3 (y+z)
y = 3z
w,x,y,z = 20,16,18,6
Amy = w = 20
Nick-Cal = x-z = 16-6 = 10
