Answer 2

Answer:

Let

money john received = $ 2x

money peter received = $ 4x

money mary received = $ 9x

money recieved by john and peter together = 2x +4x = $ 6x

Given money recieved by john and peter together = 360

So $ 6x = $ 360

  x= 60

money john received = $120

money peter received = $240

money mary received = $540

Total money shared = $ 900
