Ans.
Let us take :
Janae = A
Jerome = B
Gwen = C
John = D
Given that
D > A + B + C
or, 8m + 4 > (m) + (m) + (4m + 8)
or, 8m + 4 > 6m + 8
or, 2m > 4
or, m > 2
Here, m belongs to the set of Natural numbers.
So, we can take
m = 3, 4, 5, ...
For example, we take m = 3.
Then, Janae has 3 marbles,
Jerome has 3 marbles,
Gwen has 20 marbles and
John has 28 marbles.
You can also put m = 4, 5, ... and you will get more answers.
