Wesley, Liam, Ben and Eric shared $420. Eric received ¹₄ of the total amount of money received by Wesley, Liam and Ben. Wesley received ³₅ of the total amount for Liam and Ben. Liam received ¹₂ as much money as Ben. If Liam gave all his money to Eric, how much did Eric have more than Wesley in the end?

Wesley	Liam	Ben	Eric	Total
4x6			1x6	5x6
3x3	5x3
	1x5	2x5
9 u	5 u	10 u	6 u	30 u

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

The total amount that Wesley, Liam and Ben have is repeated.  Make the total amount of Wesley, Liam and Ben the same. LCM of 24 and 4 is 24.

Total amount that Wesley, Liam, Ben and Eric shared = 30 u

30 u = 420

1 u = 420 ÷ 30 = 14

	Wesley	Liam	Ben	Eric
Before	9 u	5 u	10 u	6 u
Change		- 5 u		+ 5 u
After	9 u	0 u	10 u	11 u

Amount that Eric had if Liam gave him all his money
= 6 u + 5 u
= 11 u

Amount that Eric had more than Wesley
= 11 u - 9 u
= 2 u
= 2 x 14
= $28

Answer(s): $28
