${\fcolorbox{blue}{black}{\pink{\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:A᭄ɴsᴡᴇʀ࿐\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:}}}$

£231 [Henry]

Gavin= y

Henry= 3 x y= 3y

Mark= 2 x 3y= 6y

6y+3y+y= 10y

Henry:

*( 3y/10y ) x 770= ?

↓

* 'y' gets cancelled out during the division.

∴ (3/10) x 770 → 10 and 770 get cancelled out to give 77

⇒ 3x77= 231

(Ans) £231.
