let the total amt. be x
therefore a gets 1/3x
c gets 1/3x-1200
b gets 3(1/3x-1200)
therefore 1/3x+ 1/3x-1200 +3(1/3x-1200) = x
2/3x-1200+x-3600 =x
5/3x-4800 =x
5/3x - x =4800
2/3x = 4800
x = 7200
therefore a will get 2400
b will get 3600
c will get 1200
therefore a gets 1/3x
c gets 1/3x-1200
b gets 3(1/3x-1200)
therefore 1/3x+ 1/3x-1200 +3(1/3x-1200) = x
2/3x-1200+x-3600 =x
5/3x-4800 =x
5/3x - x =4800
2/3x = 4800
x = 7200
therefore a will get 2400
b will get 3600
c will get 1200
