Answer:

$66

Step-by-step explanation:

Caroline share = take it x

Bridget share = 3 times x , 3x

Stephen share = Twice as Bridget , 2 times 3x , 2( 3x )

so equation is x + 3x + 2( 3x ) = x + 3x + 6x = $110

10x = $110

$110 / 10 = $11

it means Caroline's share is $11

so , we can find other two shares easily

Bridget share = 3x so $11 *3 = $33

Stephen share = 2 ( 3x ) = 6x = $11 * 6 = $66

$11 + $33 + $66 = $110
