Answer:
Polly's money is 30, Andy's is 60, and Phoebe's is 180.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
Phoebe andy and polly share 270
Phoebe gets 3 times as andy
And, andy gets twice as much as polly
let us assume the following things
B be Phoebe's money
A be Andy's money
L be Polly's money
Now following equations should be used
B + A + L = 270 .........(1)
B = 3A............(2)
A = 2L .............(3)
So,
B = 3A
= 3 × (2L)
= 6L
Now put the equation 2 and equation 3 in equation 1
So,
6L + 2L + L = 270
9L = 270
L = 30
A = 2L
= 2(30)
= 60
B = 3A
= 3(60)
= 180
Therefore, Polly's money is 30, Andy's is 60, and Phoebe's is 180.
