Dylan, Sean, Paul and Jeremy shared $48. Jeremy received ¹₅ of the total amount of money received by Dylan, Sean and Paul. Dylan received ¹₃ of the total amount for Sean and Paul. Sean received ²₃ as much money as Paul. If Sean gave all his money to Jeremy, how much did Jeremy have more than Dylan in the end?

Dylan	Sean	Paul	Jeremy	Total
5x4			1x4	6x4
1x5	3x5
	2x3	3x3
5 u	6 u	9 u	4 u	24 u

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

The total amount that Dylan, Sean and Paul have is repeated.  Make the total amount of Dylan, Sean and Paul the same. LCM of 20 and 5 is 20.

Total amount that Dylan, Sean, Paul and Jeremy shared = 24 u

24 u = 48

1 u = 48 ÷ 24 = 2

	Dylan	Sean	Paul	Jeremy
Before	5 u	6 u	9 u	4 u
Change		- 6 u		+ 6 u
After	5 u	0 u	9 u	10 u

Amount that Jeremy had if Sean gave him all his money
= 4 u + 6 u
= 10 u

Amount that Jeremy had more than Dylan
= 10 u - 5 u
= 5 u
= 5 x 2
= $10

Answer(s): $10
