Question

£130 is divided between Dan, David & Mark so that Dan gets twice as much as David, and David gets three times as much as Mark. How much does Dan get?

Answer 1

Answer:

78

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the common factor.

x + 3(x) + 2(3x)

=10 x

10 x = 130

x = 13

therefore,

x = Mark = 13

3x = David = 39

6x = Dan = 78
