Ahmad, Asher, Perry and Oliver shared $352. Oliver received ³₅ of the total amount of money received by Ahmad, Asher and Perry. Ahmad received ¹₃ of the total amount for Asher and Perry. Asher received ²₃ as much money as Perry. If Asher gave all his money to Oliver, how much did Oliver have more than Ahmad in the end?

Ahmad	Asher	Perry	Oliver	Total
5x4			3x4	8x4
1x5	3x5
	2x3	3x3
5 u	6 u	9 u	12 u	32 u

The total amount that Asher and Perry have is repeated.  Make the total amount of Asher and Perry the same.  LCM of 5 and 3 is 15.

The total amount that Ahmad, Asher and Perry have is repeated.  Make the total amount of Ahmad, Asher and Perry the same. LCM of 20 and 5 is 20.

Total amount that Ahmad, Asher, Perry and Oliver shared = 32 u

32 u = 352

1 u = 352 ÷ 32 = 11

	Ahmad	Asher	Perry	Oliver
Before	5 u	6 u	9 u	12 u
Change		- 6 u		+ 6 u
After	5 u	0 u	9 u	18 u

Amount that Oliver had if Asher gave him all his money
= 12 u + 6 u
= 18 u

Amount that Oliver had more than Ahmad
= 18 u - 5 u
= 13 u
= 13 x 11
= $143

Answer(s): $143
