Shiyun, Jaslyn and Jen shared $350 among themselves. Jaslyn and Jen shared ²₅ of the money equally. After Jaslyn gave away some of her money to Shiyun, Jen had 5 times as much money as Jaslyn. How much money did Jaslyn give to Shiyun?

	Jaslyn	Jen	Shiyun	Total
Before	1x5 = 5 u	1x5 = 5 u	3x5 = 15 u	25 u
Change	- 4 u	No change	+ 4 u
After	1x1 = 1 u	5x1 = 5 u	19 u	25 u

Jaslyn and Jen shared ²₅ of the money equally.

Fraction of the money that Jaslyn and Jen each had
= ²₅ ÷ 2
= ²₅ x ¹₂
= ¹₅

The amount that Jen had remains unchanged.  The amount that Jen had is the unchanged quantity. Make the amount that Jen had the same. LCM of 1 and 5 is 5.

The amount that Jaslyn and Jen had at first is the same.

Total amount that they had at first
= 5 u + 5 u + 15 u
= 25 u

25 u = 350

1 u = 350 ÷ 25 = 14

Amount that Jaslyn gave to Shiyun
= 5 u - 1 u
= 4 u
= 4 x 14
= $56

Answer(s): $56
