Reggie, Ethan, Howard and Mark shared $448. Mark received ³₅ of the total amount of money received by Reggie, Ethan and Howard. Reggie received ¹₃ of the total amount for Ethan and Howard. Ethan received ²₃ as much money as Howard. If Howard gave all his money to Mark, how much did Mark have more than Ethan in the end?

Reggie	Ethan	Howard	Mark	Total
5x4			3x4	8x4
1x5	3x5
	2x3	3x3
5 u	6 u	9 u	12 u	32 u

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

The total amount that Reggie, Ethan and Howard have is repeated.  Make the total amount of Reggie, Ethan and Howard the same. LCM of 20 and 5 is 20.

Total amount that Reggie, Ethan, Howard and Mark shared = 32 u

32 u = 448

1 u = 448 ÷ 32 = 14

	Reggie	Ethan	Howard	Mark
Before	5 u	6 u	9 u	12 u
Change			- 9 u	+ 9 u
After	5 u	6 u	0 u	21 u

Amount that Mark had if Howard gave him all his money
= 12 u + 9 u
= 21 u

Amount that Mark had more than Ethan
= 21 u - 6 u
= 15 u
= 15 x 14
= $210

Answer(s): $210
