The total amount that Julian and Luis have is repeated. Make the total amount of Julian and Luis the same. LCM of 5 and 3 is 15.
The total amount that Henry, Julian and Luis have is repeated. Make the total amount of Henry, Julian and Luis the same. LCM of 20 and 5 is 20.
Total amount that Henry, Julian, Luis and Zane shared = 24 u
24 u = 96
1 u = 96 ÷ 24 = 4

Amount that Zane had if Luis gave him all his money
= 4 u + 9 u
= 13 u
Amount that Zane had more than Julian
= 13 u - 6 u
= 7 u
= 7 x 4
= $28
Answer(s): $28
