Let the amount received by Kiran be rupees x.
Then the amount received by Salma will be 1000 more than Kiran = x + 1000.
Then the amount received by Jennifer will be 500 more than Kiran = x + 500.
Given that Total amount = 13500.
x + x + 1000 + x + 500 = 13500
3x + 1500 = 13500
3x = 13500 - 1500
3x = 12000
x = 12000/3
x = 4000.
Therefore the amount received by Jennifer = x + 500
= 4000 + 500
= 4500.
Hope this helps!
