EVALUATION

Here it is given that 100 is divided between Fiona, Pip & Sara so that Fiona gets twice as much as Pip, and Pip gets three times as much as Sara.

Let Sara gets = x , Pip gets = 3x & Fiona gets = 6x

So by the given condition

x + 3x + 6x = 100

$\implies \sf{10x = 100}$

$\implies \sf{x = 10}$

Hence Pip gets = 3 × 10 = 30
