Wesley, Pierre, Fabian and Eric shared $500. Eric received ²₃ of the total amount of money received by Wesley, Pierre and Fabian. Wesley received ¹₄ of the total amount for Pierre and Fabian. Pierre received ¹₂ as much money as Fabian. If Pierre gave all his money to Eric, how much did Eric have more than Wesley in the end?

Wesley	Pierre	Fabian	Eric	Total
3x5			2x5	5x5
1x3	4x3
	1x4	2x4
3 u	4 u	8 u	10 u	25 u

The total amount that Pierre and Fabian have is repeated.  Make the total amount of Pierre and Fabian the same.  LCM of 3 and 4 is 12.

The total amount that Wesley, Pierre and Fabian have is repeated.  Make the total amount of Wesley, Pierre and Fabian the same. LCM of 15 and 3 is 15.

Total amount that Wesley, Pierre, Fabian and Eric shared = 25 u

25 u = 500

1 u = 500 ÷ 25 = 20

	Wesley	Pierre	Fabian	Eric
Before	3 u	4 u	8 u	10 u
Change		- 4 u		+ 4 u
After	3 u	0 u	8 u	14 u

Amount that Eric had if Pierre gave him all his money
= 10 u + 4 u
= 14 u

Amount that Eric had more than Wesley
= 14 u - 3 u
= 11 u
= 11 x 20
= $220

Answer(s): $220
